Fashionably Late

The early bird gets the worm but I never liked the taste
I like to take my time with things and never act in haste
Didn't anyone tell you, slow and steady wins the race
And if we're talking slow and steady better slow down the pace

Hey mate don't you know it's good to be fashionably late
You say early is a good personality trait, I don't think it's that great
So stop the clock watching, second coutning, and chill with it mate
Cos, when I make my entrance I'll be fashionably late

So I'm twenty minutes late and the bus has long gone
Put your bee back in your bonnet another'll be along
Your face is going red like I've done something wrong
And you're starting to go Animal, Godzilla, King Kong
