Katye Kellye and the Interruption - Late Bloomer

Everyone thought Sleeping Beauty was dead
But she was just enchanted
When everybody tried to bury me
Turns out I just got planted
I’m a late, I’m a Late, I’m a late, Late Bloomer, baby
You ain’t begun to see what will become of me
Like a phoenix rising from her funeral pyre,
Don’t think this is the last you’ll see of me
Once upon a time I had some rock ‘n’ roll dreams
Was gonna take it for a spin once I got the keys
But a clichéed quid pro quo went and intervened
And kept me down in the dark
But the song in my heart kept coming back
Beauty kept peeking out through the cracks
And I’m not gonna take any more of your flack
‘Cause it’s my time to bloom
I’m a late, I’m a late, I’m a late, late bloomer, bab
You ain’t begun to see what will become of me
Like a phoenix rising from her funeral pyre
Don’t think this is the last you’ll see of me
Once upon a time I walked away from my dream
To become the woman I am today it seems
Got a winning ticket waiting just to be redeemed
It’s time to claim my prize
There’s a cosmic reason
Every blossom has its season
stems twist to face the limelight
It’s a scientific fact
It just stands to reason
The ones in front bloom first in season
But they soon die at night
But not us hidden in the back
I’m a late, I’m a late, I’m a late, late bloomer, baby
You ain’t begun to see what will become of me
Like a phoenix rising from her funeral pyre
Don’t think this is the last you’ll see of me
So get out of my way and make some room
I’m no shrinking violet, I need space to bloom
I’ve put down my roots, watch me shoot for the moon
Don’t let beauty pass you by
Don’t despair of winter, because I’m hearty in frost
Don’t let memories of my glory ever be lost
Keep planting the seeds that my music has tossed
I’m perennial by design
I’m a late, I’m a late, I’m a late, late bloomer, baby
You ain’t begun to see what will become of me
Like a phoenix rising from her funeral pyre
Don’t think this is the last you’ll see of me
Gather ye rosebuds while ye may
I think it’s time to bloom today
Listen close, now, I’ve got something to say
Can you hear me now
Can you hear me - now
