Runnin down the interstate
Coffee drippin down my leg
Every day Im runnin late
Gettin slapped around by the hands of time

Next lane theres a pick-up
A girl puttin on her make-up
Her cellular phones startin to break up
Shes gettin slapped around by the hands of time

Everybodys runnin a little late like me
The whole worlds runnin behind
Cant seem to get where we need to be
Gettin slapped around by the hands of time

Here comes a carpool
Mamas got her hands full
Six kids all late for school
Gettin slapped around by the hands of time

Just passed the governors motorcade
Mustve had a flat tire on the way
I guess everybodys got to wait
When youre slapped around by the hands of time

Everybodys runnin a little late like me
The whole worlds runnin behind
Cant seem to get where we need to be
Gettin slapped around by the hands of time

Well everybodys runnin a little late like me
The whole worlds runnin behind
Cant seem to get where we need to be
Gettin slapped around by the hands of time
