Measure Twice but Cut Once lyrics
Got a plan inside my headFrom the book that I just readA thousand tiny words were saidAbout the way to get this rightBeneath the workshop's dusty lightI'm working hard with all my mightThe pencil line is sharp and thinLet the careful work beginNo room for error or for doubtI've got it all figured outMeasure twice and cut just onceFor the masters and the dunceThe rule that saves you many monthsOf fixing all your sad affrontsMeasure twice and cut just onceThe wisest of all verbal huntsMeasure twice and cut just onceAnd do the job right for the nonceThe saw is buzzing, sharp and cleanCreating a brand new sceneFrom what has never ever beenA pile of wood, a bag of screwsThe kind of challenge I would chooseTo chase away the boring bluesIt's taking shape before my eyesA beautiful and raw surprisePatience is a tool, you seeThat helps to set your spirit freeTo build the thing you want to beA perfect piece of artistry
