Timing is important if you want to get things done
You've got to read the situation and be ready for that starting gun
Keep your motor running and be ready for the flood
With one eye on the tide so you don't get stuck in the mud
There is a season turn turn turn
Get the timing wrong and you're gonna burn
Good things come to those that wait
But it's timing puts that dinner on your plate

Waiting for the tide
Hold on tight keep out of the mudslide
Waiting for the tide
You got to plan it right if you want a smooth ride
Time and tide wait for no man it's true
But how you work it is up to you
Time's a bad enemy so make it your friend
Catch the tide right and things'll work out in the end

Tide comes in and tide goes out
Not so much to shout about
Tide goes out and tide comes in
Pick yourself up and get ready to start again
