Lyrics Patience? - Beans On Toast

Try to be patient, try to keep your cool
It′s affected everybody, not just you
Not just me, not just us
Times have changed for all of us
As we emerge into a world full of rules and regulations
Hand sanitizer and one-way systems
Confusing messaging and nervous sneezes
When there's still nobody to believe in

Remember that patience is a virtue
And that manners come for free
And what really makes the world go round
Is generosity

And everybody knows that everything′s changed
But the fundamental things have stayed the same
Surely we can still tell good from bad
Right from wrong and happy from sad
And wherever you are, when you're out on the street
Be good to the people that you meet

Remember that patience is a virtue
And that manners come for free
And what really makes the world go round
Is generosity

It's just a passing fall for this collection of ditties
We′re in on the fly in two thousand and twenty
A year that everybody would sooner forget
But we know they′ll leave its mark on the history books
Not that books exist anymore
That's just a metaphor

Well, maybe some good can come of this
Hidden underneath all of that tragic shit
Didn′t we know the world needed a shake-up?
This is your chance, now go out and get some

And tell them that patience is a virtue
And that manners come for free
And what really makes the world go round
Is generosity
And what really makes the world go round
Is generosity
