Lyrics

Patience is a virtue, so it never hurts to
Take a little time to see
Sir Topham Hatt has taught you
And you know you ought to
Be as patient as can be
Happy waiting patiently
Don't get too excited, just try staying calm
Thinking for a minute, saves you so much harm
Everything around you is rushing here and there
Life can be so simple, if you make time to spare
Patience is a virtue, so it never hurts to
Take a little time to see
Sir Topham Hatt has taught you
And you know you ought to
Be as patient as can be
Happy waiting patiently
If you're in a hurry, take the time to think
What's the point of rushing, if you're on the brink
Go a little slower, someone else can lead
Take the time to rest, that's what engines need
Patience is a virtue, so it never hurts to...
Take a little time to see
Sir Topham Hatt has taught you
And you know you ought to
Be as patient as can be
Happy waiting patiently
