Woke Up Laughing
I was waitin' for you
I was sat in the sun
I could picture your face
On the tip of my tongue
Woke up laughin'
I broke into a sweat
I broke into a run
You were hot in my heels
So I hired a gun
Woke up laughin'
I was flat on my back
I was takin' a plunge
I was makin' a stand
But my plan was undone
Woke up laughin'
Well I planned an escape
For the middle of June
But I dug too fast
And I fired too soon
Woke up laughin'
Woke up laughin'
You make yourself a fortune out in Hong Kong
You sit at home and wonder whether you were wrong
You take a small vacation just to keep sane
You find on your return your home is blown away
You meditate, you make haste
You run a risk, you come late
You pay a bill, you lose face
You're not fully unaware
Your star or your fate
If you fall do you break?
You go to war, you make love
You sign out in a box
I was waitin' for you
I was sat in the sun
I could picture your face
On the tip of my tongue
Woke up laughin'
I broke into a sweat
I broke into a run
You were hot in my heels
So I hired a gun
Woke up laughin'
I was flat on my back
I was takin' a plunge
I was makin' a stand
But my plan was undone
Woke up laughin'
Well I planned an escape
For the middle of June
But I dug too fast
And I fired too soon
Woke up laughin'
Woke up laughin'
Woke up laughin'
You make yourself a fortune out in Hong Kong
You sit at home and wonder whether you were wrong
You take a small vacation just to keep sane
You find on your return your home is blown away
You meditate, you make haste
You run a risk, you come late
You pay a bill, you lose face
You're not fully unaware
Your star or your fate
If you fall do you break?
You go to war, you make love
You sign out in a box
I was sat in the sun
I could picture your face
On the tip of my tongue
Woke up laughin'
I broke into a sweat
I broke into a run
You were hot in my heels
So I hired a gun
Woke up laughin'
I was flat on my back
I was takin' a plunge
I was makin' a stand
But my plan was undone
Woke up laughin'
Well I planned an escape
For the middle of June
But I dug too fast
And I fired too soon
Woke up laughin'
Woke up laughin'
You make yourself a fortune out in Hong Kong
You sit at home and wonder whether you were wrong
You take a small vacation just to keep sane
You find on your return your home is blown away

If you fall do you break?
You go to war, you make love
You sign out in a box
