Real Late Starter - Nerina Pallot

I woke up late today

Actually, I do that every day

Got no place to be seen

I’m not part of a scene

I’m a genius loser

Keeping counsel with my own opinion

President of the state that I’m in

Should I just stay in bed?

Should I live in my head?

Oh god, so many questions to ask

Oh you could call it lazy

I think of it as taking my time

'Cause I don’t want to do what I don’t want to do

I’m a queen refuse-nik

But oh my God, if I was somebody

I’d be doing it all just fine

But I’m a real late starter

So I’m making up for lost time

Oh my God, if I was somebody

You’d be kissing my ass right now

But I’m so polite

I do this all of the time

I missed my calling in life

Oh well

Day by day I wonder

If I will be torn asunder

By these things that I know that nobody else knows

Or maybe it’s the drinking

Kids, we should consult a Bible

Everybody needs a sign, oh

Bless the birds and the bees

The flowers and trees

And blessed be the slacker

Oh my God, if I was somebody

I’d be doing it all just fine

But I’m a real late starter

So I’m making up for lost time

Oh my God, if I was somebody

You’d be kissing my ass right now

But I’m so polite

I do this all of the time

I missed my calling in life

You must be having a laugh

Oh god, you’re having a laugh

No point in worrying if my day’s a disaster

Inside my little head, I’m happy ever after

Yes I am

Oh my God, if I was somebody

I’d be doing it all just fine

But I’m a real late starter

So I’m making up for lost time

Oh my God, if I was somebody

You’d be kissing my ass right now

But I’m so polite

I missed my calling in life

Oh my God, if I was somebody

I’d be doing it all just fine

But I’m a real late starter

So I’m making up for lost time

Oh my God, if I was somebody

You’d be kissing my ass right now

But I’m so polite

I do this all of the time

I missed my calling in life

Oh, what am I like?

Yeah, well
