It's Too Late
It's too late To fall in love with Sharon TateBut it's too soonTo ask me for the words I want carved on my tombI think it's time that you all startTo think about gettin' byBut I have that need to go out and find somebody to loveIt's too lateThere's no one left that I even want to imitateYou see, you just don't knowI'm here to give you my heart And you want some fashion showBut it ain't no contributionTo rely on an institutionTo validate your chosen artAnd to sanction your boredom And let you play out your partIt's too lateYou know when they got nothin' to giveThey only part their legs for what's negativeThey're so decadent...Until their daddy's money from home's all spentSongtexteSo I think it's time, because it's too easy To rely on worshipping devils and strangers in bed,Though they do get good drugs, and they do give good headIt's too lateYou shoulda realized I was worth the waitAh, but you didn't hesitateWhen he took you off, you let him seal our fateSo I think it's timeThat you all start To think about gettin' byWithout that need to go out and findSomebody to love
