Hit or Miss

Hurry, hurry up and wait

Is how the waiting game is played

A thousand moving parts keep score

Inside the watch we can't ignore

So let's hurry, let's hurry up and wait

Much too tired to try

Much too stubborn to quit

On an island in between

The coasts of hit or miss

Are we settlers or are we natives of this land?

Only time will tell

On which pedestal we were meant to stand

So let's hurry, let's hurry up and wait

So let's hurry, let's hurry, hurry up and wait

Every cloud above's full of splattered paint

Every seed below lies patiently in wait

But a watched kettle never boils

A watched tree never grows

May we have our tea in the forest

May we reap all that we sow

So let's hurry, so let's hurry, hurry up, hurry up and wait

So let's hurry, hurry up, hurry up, hurry up and wait
