You got to wake up You're in the presence of your future Wake up See what you're doing in our sleep You got to wake up You're in the presence of your future Wake up From the mistakes of the past From time to time we come alive But not for very long See what shape the world is in And wonder what went wrong Never dreaming, not for a second That sleeping is the cause We make solutions in our sleep It's dangerous for us all Wake up You're in the presence of your future Wake up See what we're doing in our sleep Wake up You're in the presence of your future Wake up From the mistakes of our past In our sleep, we live it up Just to wake up and find our dead Change our hair and hairstyles too But have the same empty heads Brothers and sisters I'm telling you This is what we've got to do Wake up You got to wake up Oh, wake up (doo doo doo doo doo, da da da) Wake up You got to wake up (they don't have to?) Oh, wake up You've got to wake up Oh, wake up You've got to wake up Wake up You're in the presence of your future Wake up See what you're doing in our sleep Wake up You're in the presence of your future Wake up See what you're doing in our sleep 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 Oh, wake up You've got to wake up (X27)
