Late For School - Steve Martin (史蒂夫·马丁)[00:00:00]
Woke up this mornin [00:00:10]
Clock said I was late for school [00:00:12]
Teacher told me "that's not cool"[00:00:14]
Gotta put my shirt and pants on [00:00:16]
Flew down the front stair [00:00:18]
Wet my fingers and slicked my hair [00:00:19]
Elbowed grandma passing by [00:00:21]
Her face went into a pie [00:00:23]
If I'm late there's misery [00:00:24]
I won't be up on history [00:00:26]
I'll be in the English grammar slammer [00:00:28]
And I got a C [00:00:30]
Got a warning last semester [00:00:32]
Told my mom and that depressed her [00:00:33]
Promised dad I won't be late so gotta accelerate [00:00:35]
Let's go [00:00:38]
Ran out the front door [00:00:46]
Moving like a meteor [00:00:47]
I sped across the front lawn quickly [00:00:49]
Missed the bus my shoelace tripped me [00:00:51]
Rounded the corner [00:00:53]
Homework flying as I go [00:00:55]
Neighbor shouted "tally ho "[00:00:56]
And gave a standing O [00:00:58]
Lept across three lawn flamingos [00:01:00]
Waved to Sal he's Filipino[00:01:02]
Jumped the fence [00:01:03]
And found that I was headed toward a pool [00:01:05]
In the air I did look funny [00:01:07]
On tv I'd make some money [00:01:09]
Waved my arms and legs like mad[00:01:10]
To alter where I'd land WHOO [00:01:12]
Aimed for the rubber boad [00:01:28]
Hit instead the kiddie float [00:01:30]
I began to lose control [00:01:32]
I'm so glad I learned to log roll [00:01:34]
Jumped onto the diving board [00:01:36]
Bounced off it then headed toward [00:01:37]
A jungle gym [00:01:39]
I bounced just right and caught onto a kite [00:01:40]
WHOA I'm flying[00:01:42]
Up so high i see the school [00:01:50]
8AM that's the rule [00:01:51]
Flying slowly time is marking [00:01:53]
Down below the dogs are barking [00:01:55]
I feel like I'm sailing [00:01:57]
But uh-oh the wind is failing [00:01:58]
Now I'm headed downward groundward [00:02:00]
Clownward to the school [00:02:02]
On the football field I crashed [00:02:04]
50-yard line perfect smash [00:02:06]
Grabbed my books and so begins[00:02:07]
My frantic final dash [00:02:09]
Down the hall i ricochet [00:02:11]
Trophy cases in the way [00:02:13]
The other kids are all in class [00:02:14]
I wish that I were they[00:02:16]
ALMOST THERE [00:02:21]
I see the clock ends with the light [00:02:34]
8AM exactly right [00:02:36]
I pull a handle with a fight [00:02:38]
The door is locked and that's not right[00:02:39]
There's not a person here today [00:02:41]
Is everybody out to play [00:02:43]
Now i'm thinking and it's sinking in [00:02:45]
It's saturday [00:02:46]
OHH I could have stayed in bed [00:02:49]
I'm out the school gate[00:02:55]
Wish that I could aviate [00:02:57]
Or possibly evaporate [00:02:59]
I'll be home and back in bed soon [00:03:01]
My dad is waiting[00:03:03]
"what the heck were you up to [00:03:04]
Let's go fishing [00:03:06]
My oh my your grandma's face is in a pie"[00:03:07]
This is really something [00:03:09]
I'm with dad and fish are jumping [00:03:11]
Mom gave me a new alarm[00:03:13]
To set for monday morn [00:03:15]
Never wanna be late for school'[00:03:17]
Never wanna be the classroom fool [00:03:18]
I'd be in the English grammar slammer [00:03:20]
And I get a D [00:03:22]
Now my feet are doing dances [00:03:24]
HIP HOORAY for second chances [00:03:26]
I'm not late and life is great it's time to celebrate WHOA[00:03:27]
