Smart Boy Can't Tell Ya'

(album: Riskin' It All - 1991)

Yeah, c'mon!
Hey, there's nothing I hate in
No, there's nothing I hate in
There's nothing I hate in the world like waiting
And there're things in life I'd hate to be late in
Yeah, I look at my watch'n'look at my wrist
And then I punch myself in the face with my fist
I blew out of bed to make it
Tomorrow's today'n'it's already here
It's like a disease; I can't shake it
Why don't we get this motor in gear?
A smart boy can't tell ya'

5 o'clock come and 5 o'clock's gone
And the large and the little moves steadily on
This has gone to far; we gotta rewind
Or it's a 4 fisted brainstorm in the group-mind, yeah
See I'm so tired of waiting
I build it up so big in my mind
We've filled the places we've played in
How come we never make it on time?
A smart boy can't tell ya'
I'm always the 1st and they're always too late
A smart boy can't tell ya'
Did I pick the wrong day; did I pick the wrong date?
A smart boy can't tell ya'
Aren't you happy to see us; we're only 3 hours late, yeah
A smart boy can't tell ya'
A smart boy can't tell 'a
A smart boy can't tell ya'
C'mon! Look at your clock
I think we've waited enough
A smart boy can't tell ya'
I blew outta bed to make it

Tomorrow's today'n'it's already here
It's like a disease; I can't shake it
Why don't we get this motor in gear?
A smart boy can't tell ya'
A smart boy can't tell ya'
A smart boy can't tell ya'
A smart boy can't tell ya'
A smart boy can't tell ya'
