Lyrics
Love is the reason
Why I'm spending the season
Trying to be someone I'm not
Well, it's quarter to nine
And there's leaves on the line
Is this what they call growing up?
Holding down a job
Trying to prove I'm not a slob
I think I must be out of my mind
Well, there's coffee machines
And daydreams
The boss wants to kick my behind
Because I'm always late for the world
You know that I'm late for the world
You know that I'm late for the world
Yet again
I wish I was jumping
On a 747
And taking off and flying so high
Instead of Starbucks
And office blocks
Lord knows, baby, I try
But I've always been late for the world
You know that I'm late for the world
You know that I'm late for the world
Yet again
You know that I'm late for the world
You know that I'm late for the world
You know that I'm late for the world
Yet again
Ladies and gentlemen
Put your hands together
'Cause I'm at the depths of my powers
Computer screens
And fax machines
And watching the clock
Every hour 'cause I'm late for the world
You know that I'm late for the world
You know that I'm late for the world
Yet again
You know that I'm late for the world
You know that I'm late for the world
You know that I'm late for the world
Yet again
You know that I'm late for the world
You know that I'm late for the world
You know that I'm late for the world
Yet again
