The early day still flickers in your eyes
Ah you oughta spare your face the razor
Because no one’s gonna spare the time for you
No one’s gonna watch you as you go
From a house you didn’t build and can’t control
Ah you outta spare your face the razor
Because no one’s gonna spare the time for you
You outta spare the world your labor
It’s been 20 years and no one’s told the truth
So listen oh
So listen oh
Don’t wait
Don’t wait
So listen oh
So listen oh
Don’t wait
Don’t wait
So keep that list of who to thank and mind
And don’t forget the rich ones who were kind
Ah you outta spare your face the razor
Because no one’s gonna spare the time for you
Why don’t you spare the world a traitor
Take your wager back and leave before you lose
So listen oh
So listen oh
Don’t wait
Don’t wait
So while the sun’s coming up
Cover ground
Cover ground
And if you find some love for these clowns
Turn around
Turn around
We’ll be half asleep on the floor of our high school gym
Thinking of you and wondering if anyone else could begin
To listen
Listen
Don’t wait
Don’t wait
So listen oh
So listen oh
Don’t wait
Don’t wait
