Lyrics

I'm late!
I'm late!
For a very important date!
No time to say "Hello", goodbye!
I'm late!
I'm late! I'm late! I'm late!

And, when I wave I lose the time I save
My fuzzy ears and whiskers took me too much time to shave
I run and then I hop, hop, hop
I wish that I could fly

There's danger if I dare to stop and here's the reason why
You see I'm overdue
I'm in a rabbit stew

Can't even say "Good-bye", hello
I'm late, I'm late, I'm late!

No, no, no, no, no, no, no!
I'm overdue!
I'm really in a stew!
No time to say "Goodbye", hello!
I'm late, I'm late, I'm late!
