Runnin' down the interstate
Coffee drippin' down my leg
Every day I'm runnin' late
Gettin' slapped around
By the hands of time
Next lane there's a pickup
A girl puttin' on her makeup
Her cellular phone's startin' to break up
She's gettin' slapped around
By the hands of time
[Chorus:]
Everybody's runnin' a little late like me
The whole world's runnin' behind
Can't seem to get where we need to be
Gettin' slapped around by the hands of time
Here comes the carpool
Momma's got her hands full
Six kids all late to school
They're gettin' slapped around
By the hands of time
Just pa**ed the governor's motorcade
Must've had a flat tire on the way
I guess everybody's gotta wait
When you're slapped around
By the hands of time
[Chorus:]
Everybody's runnin' a little late like me
The whole world's runnin' behind
Can't seem to get where we need to be
Gettin' slapped around by the hands of time
Everybody's runnin' a little late like me
The whole world's runnin' behind
Can't seem to get where we need to be
Slapped around by the hands of time
