Morning's come you watch the red sunrise

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
