Verse 1
Wednesday you planned and set a date
You've been playing it all up, "It'll be so great!"
We all go but you don't show, I guess it's odd to me
Since you're the one who set it up
Verse 2
Now it's today, your wedding day
You've been really swamped - you must have flaked
All clocks still run the same - depends on how you read
Your arms just move the other way
Verse 3
Your wife, she had a baby girl
She called, but you're involved in your own world
You can't teach priorities, unless you care
It'll come back to you someday
Bridge
I韛e put up my sign, yeah I韛e drawn my line
You gotta be on time for me
To show me neglect, it means no respect
Blowin' smoke in my face
We've all been there it still means you care but think it over one more time
How many flakes can be mistakes before someone crosses that line
Chorus
Be on time, you've gotta be on time, you've gotta be on time for me
Be on time, you've gotta be on time, you better be on time for me
