Steve Madewell - Late As Usual

Late As Usual

Well I get my morning paper
Cause I got some time to read
But I can’t leave the house
Without some shoes on my feet
I'm looking for my shoes when
I realize I aint got my keys.

I find my keys in a pocket
My shoes behind the door
And I’m huffing like a freight train
As I run across the floor
I look at my watch and see
I'm gonna be late once more.

Late as usual you know that’s my style
Late as usual I'll be get in a while
Late as usual I hope you understand
Cause I’m just a late as usual man

My work day is crazy in fact it's close to
Well I'm just getting myself together
When I here some body yell
Hey aint you coming
Well you see they've been waiting for me.

I grab a pen that don't work
A pad of paper in my hand
And I belly up to the table just as cool as I can
I aint fooling no one, I'm a late as usual man.

Late as usual you know that’s my style
Late as usual I'll be get in a while
If you get there early
Get all those problems in hand
Cause I’m just a late as usual man
Late as usual Don’t worry about me
Late as usual I'll be fine you’ll see
Late as usual I hope you understand
I’m just a late as usual man

I call my baby up on the telephone
I say get yourself together
Cause your daddy's coming home
About that time somebody says Let's get a beer
About three hours later Lord
When I come strolling in
The dog is glad to see me
He don't care where I been
But I know to my sweet heart this late stuff is wearing mighty thin.
(where the hell have you been)
Late as usual don't worry about me
Late as usual I'll be fine you see
Late as usual I'll meet you with a smile
It's no excuse it's just a life style
