Lyrics
Timing is everything I said with a smile
Timing is emphasized as crucial, spoken with a smile.
Maybe that's been your problem all along
Suggesting that timing might be a persistent issue.
It makes a difference in how you do
Emphasizes the importance of how things are done.
Between coasting or just crashing through
Contrasting between a smooth journey and crashing through challenges.
Some way some how somebody steered you wrong
Implying that someone misguidedly influenced or misled.
It's only half the battle
States that understanding timing is only a part of the challenge.
I don't know the other half
Expresses uncertainty about the other half of the challenge.
That's not the point it's a figure of speech
Clarifies that the previous lines are figurative.
It's only half the battle
Reiterates that timing is only a partial challenge.
But it's always worth a laugh
Suggests finding humor in the challenges of timing.
Without it all the rest is out of reach
Without understanding timing, other goals are unattainable.
You'd think that knowledge would count for more than that
Expresses disappointment that knowledge doesn't carry more weight.
The end result of all that you discover
Reflects on the outcome of gaining knowledge and discoveries.
It maybe just a cliche
Suggests a possibility that understanding things may be a common saying.
But you'll choke on it some day
Forewarns that not getting the basics right can have consequences.
If you can't get the words right
Emphasizes the importance of articulating thoughts correctly.
You're gonna suffer
Warns of suffering if communication skills are lacking.
