Lost your way round sunset and it's getting very late
Went from bad to worse the situation isn't great
Call the seventh cavalry tell them get here fast
We're pushing our good fortune and I think it will not last

Too late too late too late
Late for your own funeral you are
Too late too late too late
Late to save the day

I read it in the paper and it said we all will burn
Could have cooled it down but we are too stupid to learn
Whistling past the graveyard for a meeting with the beast
Don't let him any closer or you're calling for a priest

Too late too late too late
Late for your own funeral you are
Too late too late too late
Late to save the day

Christ, he was our saviour and he pointed out the way
Said we all could meet him soon in paradise some day

Too late too late too late
Late for your own funeral you are
Too late too late too late
Late to save the day

Too late too late too late
Late for your own funeral you are
Too late too late too late
Late to save the day
Late to save the day
