WAKE UP
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
You say your neighbor is very vain
And don't deserve a drop of rain
Cos he spent-spent a thousand pounds
On a cage for half a hound
But in your closet lies a dozen suits
You won't give out but they won't fit you
Don't be funny you've painted yourself
In the same stroke as you paint your neighbor
Wake up
Smell the coffee
Nothing's changing when we're blaming
If we really need the loving
Then we must be out there giving
Wake up
Smell the coffee
Nothing's changing when were blaming
If we really need an uplift
Then we must be up for lifting
Oh Wake up
We cry for justice and peace to reign
Say father bless our homeland we pray
But greed and gossip and are agents of war
We plant and water in our backyards daily
Hold your tongue stop the cursing out
Let the light shine from the inside out
Many people mostly talking down
Let's start to act one good deed by another
Wake up
Smell the coffee
Nothing's changing when were blaming
If we really need the loving
Then we must be out there giving
Wake up
Smell the coffee
Nothing's changing when were blaming
If we really need an uplift
Then we must be up for lifting
Oh Wake up
Wake up
Smell the coffee
Nothing's changing when were blaming
If we really need the loving
Then we must be out there giving
Wake
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
You say your neighbor is very vain
And don't deserve a drop of rain
Cos he spent-spent a thousand pounds
On a cage for half a hound
But in your closet lies a dozen suits
You won't give out but they won't fit you
Don't be funny you've painted yourself
In the same stroke as you paint your neighbor
Wake up
Smell the coffee
Nothing's changing when we're blaming
If we really need the loving
Then we must be out there giving
Wake up
Smell the coffee
Nothing's changing when were blaming
If we really need an uplift
Then we must be up for lifting
Oh Wake up
We cry for justice and peace to reign
Say father bless our homeland we pray
But greed and gossip and are agents of war
We plant and water in our backyards daily
Hold your tongue stop the cursing out
Let the light shine from the inside out
Many people mostly talking down
Let's start to act one good deed by another
Wake up
Smell the coffee
Nothing's changing when were blaming
If we really need the loving
Then we must be out there giving
Wake up
Smell the coffee
Nothing's changing when were blaming
If we really need an uplift
Then we must be up for lifting
Oh Wake up
Wake up
Smell the coffee
Nothing's changing when were blaming
If we really need the loving
Then we must be out there giving
Wake
