I love bands who make music that most people will hate,
I love music that makes me feel I'm not the same,
Another corporate junkie I ain't playing that game
I'm not the same, I'm not the same as you,
I love stories with passion about drugs and real good time
getting messy at the weekend brought a lot of messy nights
I don't want to be hurtful but you really need to go outside and try out life
But don't get me wrong, I met people filled with fire,
Who talking to for half an hour left me inspired,
about bands and books and lucid dreams tattoos and foreign lands
But to you junkie man, I send this message out
Turn off your TV and try just going out
I love movies with stories about a cat chasing a mouse
as a metaphor the mouse turns round and he won't back down
Stands up for the right to hold his own and feel pride
He must just win tonight
There must be a better way for us to survive, without the crushing bore
of corporate life breaking our stride, where at 9 o'clock in the morning we've got a smile in place of suicide,
What have we got to lose, but your retirement plans after 50 years of the blues,
what have we got to lose, but the chance to open up and choose,
Go out get a job something you like doing, have a laugh, fuck around cause there's nothing to ruin
Wake up every single day with a smile on your face
Cause your life is exactly how you wanna make it, your imagination builds it and charisma shapes, treasure the minute cause you never know when it will end
Wake up let's get it on
Wake up wake up before it's gone
Wake up wake up don't get it wrong
before it's gone
before it's gone
please wake up.
