lyrics

(an hour later)

They will have tried the lift and tried it in the pre-chorus
They will have argued about the snare for forty minutes
And when they are finished and the room goes quiet
I will say the thing I knew at the second bar

An hour later (an hour later)
That is when I speak, an hour later
Not before, an hour later
An hour later

An hour later, hour later, an hour later, hour later
If I say it first then it is my idea and they resist it
An hour later, hour later, an hour later, hour later
If I say it last then they have already arrived beside me

It is not patience and it is not humility either.
It is that I have watched eleven years of orchestras
where the person who talks least is the one being followed.
(BAND RETURNS, ENORMOUS)

An hour later, hour later, an hour later, hour later
If I say it first then it is my idea and they resist it
An hour later, hour later, an hour later, hour later
If I say it last then they have already arrived beside me

(an hour later...)
