Stacey Mindich - To Break in a Glove lyrics

[LARRY] No one will tell you how to really do it right That's a secret method only known to very few So if you need some pointers, just in case you might Well, then, maybe I could show you what to do [LARRY, spoken] Shaving cream [EVAN, spoken] Shaving cream? [LARRY, spoken] You rub that in for about five minutes And then you tie it all up in rubber bands Put it under your mattress, and sleep on it And then the next day, you repeat And you gotta do it for at least a week, every day, consistently [LARRY, sung] And though this method isn't easy Every second that you spend is gonna pay off It'll pay off in the end It just takes a little patience Takes a little time A little perseverance A little uphill climb You might not think it's worth it You might begin to doubt But you can't take any shortcuts You gotta stick it out And it's the hard way, but it's the right way The right way to break in a glove [LARRY, spoken] But nowadays, with your generation I hate to say it, but it's all about instant gratification Who wants to read a book when you can read the Facebook instead? [EVAN, spoken] Totally [LARRY, spoken] Speaking of instant gratification, I figured we might need it I mean, only if you want to [EVAN, spoken] Definitely [LARRY, sung] Some people say just use a microwave Or try that "run it through hot water" technique Well, they can gloat about the time they saved 'Til they gotta buy another glove next week It just takes a little patience Takes a little time A little perseverance And a little uphill climb And it's the hard way, but it's the right way The right way... There's a right way in everything you do Keep that grit Follow through Even when everyone around you thinks you're crazy Even when everyone around you lets things go And if you're prepping for some test Or if you're miles from some goal Or you're just trying to do what's best For a kid who's lost control You do the hard thing And that's the right thing Yeah, that's the right way
