What! What! What! What!
What! What! What! What!
What! What! What! What!
A certain shade of green
Tell me is that what you mean?
All signs around say move ahead
Could someone please explain to me your ever present lack of speed?
Are your muscles bound by ropes?
Or do crutches cloud your day?
My sources say the road is clear
And street signs point the way
You gonna stand around 'til 2012 AD?
What are you waiting for, a certain shade of green?
I think I grew a gray watching you procrastinate
What are you waiting for, a certain shade of green?
Would a written invitation
Signed choose now or lose it all?
Sedate your hesitation
Or inflame and make you stall?
You've been raised in limitation
But that glove never fit quite right
The time has passed for hand me downs
Choose a new, please evolve, take flight
You gonna stand around 'til 2012 AD?
What are you waiting for, a certain shade of green?
I think I grew a gray watching you procrastinate
Green, what are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
A written invitation?
A public declaration? Yeah
A private consolation? Oh
Remember, when you procrastinate, you choose last
I think I grew a gray watching you procrastinate
Go, go, go, go
You gonna stand around 'til 2012 AD?
What are you waiting for, a certain shade of green?
I think I grew a gray watching you procrastinate
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?

What! What! What! What!
What! What! What! What!
What! What! What! What!
A certain shade of green
Tell me is that what you mean?
All signs around say move ahead
Could someone please explain to me your ever present lack of speed?
Are your muscles bound by ropes?
Or do crutches cloud your day?
My sources say the road is clear
And street signs point the way
You gonna stand around 'til 2012 AD?
What are you waiting for, a certain shade of green?
I think I grew a gray watching you procrastinate
What are you waiting for, a certain shade of green?
Would a written invitation
Signed choose now or lose it all?
Sedate your hesitation
Or inflame and make you stall?
You've been raised in limitation
But that glove never fit quite right
The time has passed for hand me downs
Choose a new, please evolve, take flight
You gonna stand around 'til 2012 AD?
What are you waiting for, a certain shade of green?
I think I grew a gray watching you procrastinate
Green, what are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
A written invitation?
A public declaration? Yeah
A private consolation? Oh
Remember, when you procrastinate, you choose last
I think I grew a gray watching you procrastinate
Go, go, go, go
You gonna stand around 'til 2012 AD?
What are you waiting for, a certain shade of green?
I think I grew a gray watching you procrastinate
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?

What! What! What! What!
What! What! What! What!
What! What! What! What!
A certain shade of green
Tell me is that what you mean?
All signs around say move ahead
Could someone please explain to me your ever present lack of speed?
Are your muscles bound by ropes?
Or do crutches cloud your day?
My sources say the road is clear
And street signs point the way
You gonna stand around 'til 2012 AD?
What are you waiting for, a certain shade of green?
I think I grew a gray watching you procrastinate
What are you waiting for, a certain shade of green?
Would a written invitation
Signed choose now or lose it all?
Sedate your hesitation
Or inflame and make you stall?
You've been raised in limitation
But that glove never fit quite right
The time has passed for hand me downs
Choose a new, please evolve, take flight
You gonna stand around 'til 2012 AD?
What are you waiting for, a certain shade of green?
I think I grew a gray watching you procrastinate
Green, what are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
A written invitation?
A public declaration? Yeah
A private consolation? Oh
Remember, when you procrastinate, you choose last
I think I grew a gray watching you procrastinate
Go, go, go, go
You gonna stand around 'til 2012 AD?
What are you waiting for, a certain shade of green?
I think I grew a gray watching you procrastinate
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for?
