Wake Up

Lyrics

You got to wake up!
 Live in the presence of your future
 Wake up!
 See what we're doing in our sleep
 You've got to wake up!
 Live in the presence of your future
 Wake up
 Learn from the mistakes of the past
 From time to time we come alive
 but not for very long
 See the shape the world is in
 and wonder what went wrong
 Never dreaming not for a second
 sleeping is the cause
 we make solutions in our sleep
 it's dangerous for us all
 You got to wake up!
 Live in the presence of your future
 Wake up!
 See what we're doing in our sleep
 You've got to wake up!
 Live in the presence of your future
 Wake up
 Learn from the mistakes of the past
 In our sleep we live it up
 Just to wake up find we're dead
 Change our hair and hairstyles too
 but have the same empty heads
 Brothers and sisters I'm telling you
 Now's all the time for us
 This is what we've got to do
 and we can have the lives we'd love?
 You've got to wake up
 You've got to wake up
 Oh, wake up (you got to doo doo de doo doo doo)
 You've got to wake up
 (they don't have to man!)
 Oh, wake up
 You've got to wake up
 Oh, wake up
 You've got to wake up
 You got to wake up!
 Live in the presence of your future
 Wake up!
 See what we're doing in our sleep
 You've got to wake up!
 Live in the presence of your future
 Wake up!
 Learn from the mistakes of the past
 In our sleep, we change our wife
 We change our suit of clothes
 We change our church, we change our god
 But have the same funky soul
 Never dreaming, not for a second
 Sleeping is the cause
 We make solutions in our sleep
 and it's dangerous for us all
 Oh, wake up
 You've got to wake up
 (repeat with scat until end)
