Make Waves
Patrick Cannell © 1994
Your life boat has been stranded in tar.
I don't think you'll be traveling far.
The time is now, not tomorrow or the next day or the day after that.
The time is now, not tomorrow or the next day or the day after that.
Second thoughts have been weighing you down,
Throw them overboard before you drown.
The time is now, not tomorrow or the next day or the day after that.
The time is now, not tomorrow or the next day or the day after that.
Our life is our own to lend, our time is our own to spend.
So, while you've a chance my friend, make waves.
Our ship is our own to sail, our task is our own to fail.
There's bound to be wind and hail. Make waves.
Your old steamer is stuck in the mud,
Board my yacht while the west wind is good.
The time is now, not tomorrow or the next day or the day after that.
The time is now, not tomorrow or the next day or the day after that.
Our life is our own to lend, our time is our own to spend.
So, while you've a chance my friend, make waves.
Our course is our own to take, our bed is our own to make.
So join me in life's great lake. Make Waves.
