Wake Up!

Printer Friendly Version
You put your cleanest dirty shirt on
Then you stagger down to meet the dawn
You take a ride upon a bus, it’s just a fuss
You know it keeps you born
You get to know a morning face
You get to join the human race
You get to know the world
Has passed you by

Who cares? you might be dead
Who cares? you stayed in bed
Who cares? you wrote the note
Who cares? you might have spoke

Wake up!

You take a snack to fill the gap
And then you’re ready for another shift
Your attention was diverted
By the girl who smiled and made the lift
The radio is blaring out
It’s in one ear and then it’s out
You didn’t notice that the record’s over

Who cares? you might be dead
Who cares? you stayed in bed
Who cares? you wrote the note
Who cares? you might have spoke

Wake up!

In the road a crowd had gathered
And a man was close to dead
The blood is running down the gutter
While you’re yawning, nothing’s said
His body’s wriggling like an eel
They got no sense, no touch, no feel
Somebody better go and get a blanket

Who cares? you might be dead
Who cares? you stayed in bed
Who cares? you wrote the note
Who cares? you might have spoke

Who cares?
