Verse 1:
Born too late for you to notice me.
To you, I'm just a kid,
That you won't date.
Why was I born too late?

Verse 2:
Born too late to have a chance,
To win your love.
Oh, why, oh, why was it my fate,
To be born too late?

Bridge:
I see you walk with another.
I wish it could be me.
I long to hold you and kiss you,
But I know it never can be.

Verse 3:
For I was born too late for you to care.
Now my heart cries because your heart
Just couldn't wait.
Why was I born too late?

Verse 3 repeated, with slight alteration:
Born too late for you to care.
Now my heart cries because your heart
Just couldn't wait.
Why was I born too la-a-a-a-ate?

Coda:
Why was I born too late?
Too Late.

Toni Cistone (lead), LaVerne Novak, and Karen Topinka were the original Poni-Tails. Unlike some other acts who scored big in rock, the trio of ladies didn't come from meager beginnings; they all were from Lyndhurst, OH (an upper-middle-class suburb of Cleveland where they expected children to graduate from high school, go to college, earn a degree, and become a professional; involvement in popular music was considered frivolous).

The trio began singing at Brush High School. An attorney, John Jewitt, introduced them to music publisher Tom Illius who got the ball rolling. Illius liked a self-penned song the high schoolers wrote, "Que la Bozena," and offered to shop it around town. A deal was secured with a local label, Point Records, with Illius acting as their manager.
