Lyrics
At the core of the Earth
It's too hot to breathe
There's nothing much to eat
And everybody leaves
There's a place in the forest
Where the animals dance
Carefree and joyous, like nobody's watching
And nobody's watching
So they laugh and they dance
Around mahogany trees
Completely unawares they're gonna end up as meat
And nobody's watching
Wake up, wake up
Try better next time
Wake up, wake up
Cry better next time
Wake up, wake up
Try better next time
Wake up, wake up
So, you know me, understand me
Is that what you think?
You haven't met the monster
Who wakes up when I drink
I was born out of time
I'm not meant to be here
With the weight of the world and the weight of a tear
Are exactly the same
Wake up, wake up
Try better next time
Wake up, wake up
Cry better next time
Wake up, wake up
Try better next time
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
Try better next time
Wake up, wake up
Cry better next time
Wake up, wake up
Try better next time
Wake up, wake up
There's a spot in the ocean
And that's where we'll meet
Somewhere far away
Where fish can nibble at our feet
And we can grow fins, go back in the water
Grow fins, go back in the water
Grow fins, go back in the water
Grow fins, go back in the water
Wake up, wake up
Try better next time
Wake up, wake up
Cry better next time
Wake up, wake up
Try better next time
Wake up, wake up
Wake up, wake up
Try better next time
Wake up, wake up
Cry better next time
Wake up, wake up
Try better next time
Wake up, wake up
It's a gas
It's a party on this planet of flakes
Somebody take a picture
Before it's too late
