Count To Ten - Timbuk 3

Delivered in hate

Leave a taste

Of toxic waste

Before we make the same mistake again

Count to ten

Whether you’re strong

Whether you’re weak

It’s best to think

Before you speak

Before you take a stand you can’t defend

Count to ten

Authors and critics

Writers and hacks

Do your homework

Get the facts

Before you point your poison hand

Count to ten

One, two, three, four, five

Mankind will survive

Babe, is it you or me I must convince?

Five, six, seven, eight

How long must I wait

For this frog in my throat

To turn into a prince?

Ten little fingers

Ten little toes

Ten commandments

That everyone knows

Even old man Moses knew back then

Count to ten

One, two, three, four, five

Mankind will survive

Babe, is it you or me I must convince?

Five, six, seven, eight

How long must I wait

For this frog in my throat

To turn into a prince?

Read my lips

Don’t hesitate

If you wait for the movie

It’ll be too late

Armageddon means a few good men

Count to ten
