Always Late |
Yeah, yeah, yeah |
I was actually five hours late though |
I missed my friend’s engagement |
'Cause I’m always late |
Missed my girlfriend’s ultrasound |
'Cause I’m always late |
Had a job interview but I woke up in a state |
But ask me if I’d do it again and I would say, 'okay,' |
I’m always late |
I don’t even own a watch but man, wouldn’t that be great? |
Ask me if I’d do it again and I would say, 'okay,' |
I’m always late |
Yo, it’s the number one faffer |
Number one bag-packing slacker |
Number one traffic jammer |
Yeah I got the radio on but even Lionel Richie can’t stop this anger |
I’m looking at my cabbie like 'boss |
Have you ever seen Men In Black? |
Yes in fact, remember that bit when they push a red button and go super-fast |
Can we do that yeah?' |
Nah, apparently not |
So now I gotta ring my friend and think on the spot, I’m like |
'Yeah, I’m gonna be another forty minutes |
Because I just saved an orphan,' - wicked |
Yeah I’m forever late |
And when I die I’ll get turned away from heaven’s gate |
And there’ll be hell to pay |
They’re like, 'Yo, you were supposed to be here yesterday' |
And I’m like, 'Sorry I didn’t fucking die sooner,' |
I missed my best friend’s wedding |
'Cause I’m always late |
Missed my first kid being born |
'Cause I’m always late |
Missed my own birthday, 'cause I woke up the next day |
But ask me if I’d do it again and I would say, 'okay,' |
I’m always late |
I don’t even own a watch but man, wouldn’t that be great? |
Ask me if I’d do it again and I would say, 'okay,' |
I’m always late |
Yo, blame it on the alcohol or on a reefer |
Blame it on a two-week stint in Ibiza |
Blame it on the Sun, or on Fifa |
Blame it on the last episode of Game of Thrones, bruv |
Yeah, I got girlfriends acting Khaleesi |
Time drags on and I’m late when they see me |
It’s Luigi trying to get a star |
Going double-fast just to keep my princess peachy |
Real talk though, time’s a language |
And you can eat my lack-of-punctuality sandwich |
It’s not all London and Manhattan |
There are places on Earth than enjoy relaxing |
Until then I’ll get a flat white with added lack of nap-time |
And whatever will help me fucking not miss my commitments |
I fall victim to thinking everything will just go smoothly |
And now my best friend hates me |
'Cause I’m always late |
And my family’s moved away |
'Cause I’m always late |
It ain’t even Christmas, but it feels like holiday |
'Cause now I ain’t got shit to do so I can sleep all day |
I’m always late |
I don’t even own a watch but man, wouldn’t that be great? |
Ask me if I’d do it again and I would say, 'okay,' |
I’m always late |
Ah, yeah, yeah |
Sorry, I just — |
You haven’t got teleportation |
Would be great |
Yeah — see, I didn’t even finish that on time |
