作曲:Noel Coward

When I was quite a tiny lad

My nurse rehearsed me in a set routine

Of good and bad

When I grew up my parents would

Unduly emphasize the gulf between

The bad and good

Aware that love can be a most destructive force

I try to steer a middle course

There's a right way and a wrong way

There's a weak way and a strong way

Take it easy

Drive with caution when the road is greasy

Wait a bit wait a bit Joe

There's an old way and a new way

There's a false way and a true way

Keep your ears back

And you'll never have to fight the tears back

Wait a bit wait a bit Joe

Never trust your conscience as a method of defense

When old adam bubbles up inside

On mature reflection you will find that common sense

Is a far more servicible guide

There's the wrong life and he right life

There's the home life and the night life

But which ever direction you go

Wait a bit wait a bit Joe

There's a right way and a wrong way

There's a short way and a long way

Let your hair down

But before the thrill begins to wear down

Wait a bit wait a bit Joe

There's a dull way and a smart way

There's a head way and a heart way

Love may fret you

But before you let the goblins get you

Wait a bit wait a bit Joe

Try to keep your balance and endeavour to create

A design for living at your ease

If you're over eager and go snapping at the bait

You will end by giving at the knees

There's a last love and a first love

There's a best love and a worst love

But if you don't want to lose on the throw

Wait a bit wait a bit

Wait a bit wait a bit Joe
