No More Wasted Time

No More Wasted Time - Idina Menzel/LaChanze/Jenn Colella/Tamika Lawrence

Once upon a grad school

Beth met Oren and he said

"My dear you're kind you're pretty with a brein inside your head

I've got work out West will you come with me if we're wed "

So off Beth went to Phoenix

Full of champagne cake and dread

Twelve years on her hope had all but died

So she checked the wreck around her

And with a big deep breath Beth cried

"No more wasted time

No more standing still

I once would dream of building cities

And now I think I will "

She said "I'm done with life out West

And Oren well we did our best

But I can't wait

No more wasted time

It's much too late "

No more wasted time

No more time for doubt

You say you're not sure you're a hero

It's time you should find out

So say you've made a few mistakes

Heroes know that's what it takes

To find their way

No more wasted time

Not one more day

We've got no time for playing nice

There's only time for strong

We've got no need for good advice

We've listened far too long

It's gone too wrong

No more wasted time

No more holding back

No bowing low and asking nicely

(Kate & Elena:)

We need a new attack

(Elena:)

We're gonna run the whole damn place

But with some class and with some grace

And we'll do fine

No more wasted time

It's on the line

(Anne:)

You've got no time for playing nice

(Beth:)

I've got no time for playing nice

(Elena:)

There's only time for strong

(Beth:)

I know I'm strong

(Kate:)

And we don't need to tell you twice

(Kate Anne & Elena (Beth):)

You've waited for this long (I hope I)

You won't go wrong (Won't go wrong)

(Beth:)

No more wasted time

No more wasted breath

(Elena:)

No hoping life will just get better

We've hoped it half to death

(Beth:)

No playing for the perfect card

(Kate:)

'Cause life is short and life is hard

(Beth Kate Elena & Anne:)

So I don't care how

(Kate:)

But no more wasted time

(Elena:)

No more wasted time

(Beth:)

No more wasted time

(Anne:)

No more wasted time

(Kate Elena Beth & Anne:)

No more wasted time

Starting now

Now

Now
