ALWAYS LATE- Composed by Shmuel Kunda- The Magic Yarmulka

Alarm clocks are ringing
The radios singing
The traffic outside’s
driving by with a roar!!!
Bells jing-a-linging
Mosquitoes are stinging
So why am I turning in bed with a snore?!?

Always late
Always late,
Why is that my fate
To be always late.
Always late
Always late,
Things just don’t go straight
and I’m always late…

The telephones talking-
The chickens are squawking
The mail was just brought
to the front of my door,
People are joking
The frogs, they are croaking
and I’m turning over in bed with a snore.

Always late
Always late,
Everyone must wait
‘cuz I’m always late.
Always late
Always late,
It makes them all tzudrait
that I’m always late.

The planes, they are zooming
The cannons are booming
The sirens make sounds that are hard to ignore,
The ground, it is quaking
The whole earth is shaking
and I’m turning over in bed with a snore.

Always late
Always late,
People just won’t wait
Because I’m always late.
Always late
Always late,
There’s no food on my plate
Because I’m always late.

My mother is calling
Niagara is falling
A pail full of water she’s ready to pour.
She says “Stop that yawning.
It’s already morning!”
And I better listen
‘Cuz here comes some more… (SPLASH!!)

Always late
What trouble I create,
People they just hate
When someone’s always late!
Always late
What trouble I create,
People they just hate
When someone’s always late!
