[Verse 1]
Can't always wait for the perfect wave
Sometimes you gotta ride the wave you've got
Sometimes stuff don't go your way
And sometimes that can happen a lot

[Chorus]
Yeah, one cat's bucket is empty
He ain't got nothing to show (Nothing to show)
Another cat flips it upside down
And makes himself a bongo
Yeah, he makes himself a bongo

[Verse 2]
You can wait around for those clouds to part
And count that day as a loss
Or you can get creative my brother
And that's life's secret sauce

[Chorus]
Yeah, one cat says his bucket is empty
He ain't got nothing to show (Nothing to show)
Anothеr cat flips it upside down
And makes himself a bongo
So makеs yourself a bongo
Go make yourself a bongo!
