Lyrics I'm Late - The Modernaires

I'm late
I'm late
For a very important date
No time to say hello, goodbye
I'm late, I'm late, I'm late
And when I wave
I lose the time I save
My buzzy ears and whiskers took to much time to shave
I run and then I hop, hop, hop
I wish that I could fly
There's danger if I dare to stop
And here is the reason why
You see, I'm overdue
I'm in a rabbit's due
Can't even say goobye, hello
I'm late, I'm late, I'm late

Good morning mister chatterbox
I'd love to stop and chatter
But in six and seven eight minutes
I must meet with the mad hatter
The mad, mad, mad hatter
We must chat about a very important matter

I'm late
I'm late
For a very important date
No time to say hello, goodbye
I'm late, I'm late, I'm late
And when I wave
I lose the time I save
My buzzy ears and whiskers took to much time to shave
I run and then I hop, hop, hop
I wish that I could fly
There's danger if I dare to stop
And here is the reason why
You see, I'm overdue
I'm in a rabbit's due
Can't even say goodbye, hello
I'm late, I'm late, I'm late

I'm off to see the Queen of Hearts who lives up in the palace
And the very moment I drew with her I got a date with Alice
(I can't be late for Alice)
Or the Queen of Hearts who lives up in the palace

I'm late
I'm late
For a very important (At eight)
No time to say hello, goodbye
I'm late, I'm late, I'm late
And when (and when)
I wave (I wave)
I lose the time I save (I save)
My buzzy ears and whiskers took to much time to shave
Run, Run, hop, hop, hop
Wish that I could fly
I'm in danger if I stop
(And here's the reason why, you see)
I'm overdue
(I'm in a rabbit's due)
Can't even say hello, goodbye
I'm late, I'm late, I'm late, I'm late, I'm late
I'm late, I'm late, I'm late, I'm late, I'm late
I'm late, I'm late, I'm late, I'm late, I'm late
I'm late, I'm late, I'm late, I'm late
I'm late, I'm late, I'm late, I'm late

(But not too late)
