I'm Late (From "Alice in Wonderland")

I'm late! I'm late!
For a very important date!
No time to say "Hello, Goodbye!"
I'm late! I'm late! I'm late! I'm late!

And, when I wave I lose the time I save
My fuzzy ears and whiskers took me too much time to shave
I run and then I hop, hop, hop
I wish that I could fly
There's danger if I dare to stop
And here's the reason why
You see I'm overdue
I'm in a rabbit stew
Can't even say "Good-bye, Hello!"
I'm late, I'm late, I'm late!

Good morning Mr. Chatterbox, I'd love to stop and chatter.
But in six and seven eight minutes I must meet with the Mad Hatter
With mad mad mad Mad Hatter
We must chat about a very important matter.

I'm late! (I'm late!) I'm late! (I'm late!)
For a very important date!
No time to say "Hello, Goodbye!"
I'm late! (I'm late!) I'm late! (I'm late!)

And, when I wave I lose the time I save
My fuzzy ears and whiskers took me too much time to shave
I run and then I hop, hop, hop
I wish that I could fly
There's danger if I dare to stop
And here's the reason why
You see I'm overdue
I'm in a rabbit stew
Can't even say "Good-bye, Hello!"
I'm late, I'm late, I'm late, I'm late!

I'm off to see the Queen of Hearts
Who lives up in the palace
And the very moment I am through with her
I've got a date with Alice.
We can't be late for Alice!

Oh, the Queen of Hearts who lives up in the palace...

I'm late! (I'm late!) I'm late! (I'm late!)
For a very important date!
No time to say "Hello, Goodbye!"
I'm late! (I'm late!) I'm late! (I'm late!)

And, when I wave I lose the time I save
My fuzzy ears and whiskers took me too much time to shave
I run and then I hop, hop, hop
I wish that I could fly
There's danger if I dare to stop
And here's the reason why
You see I'm overdue
I'm in a rabbit stew
Can't even say "Good-bye, Hello!"
Can't even say "Good-bye, Hello!"
Can't even say "Good-bye, Hello!"
I'm late, I'm late, I'm late! I'm late!
I'm late, I'm late, I'm late! I'm late!
I'm late, I'm late, I'm late! I'm late...

Oh my! I only have half a minutes to get
to the party! You'll excuse me, won't you?
Good-bye!

I'm late, I'm late, I'm late! I'm late!
I'm late, I'm late, I'm late! I'm late!
I'm late, I'm late, I'm late! I'm late!
I'm late, I'm late, I'm late! I'm late...
