Wake Up (people)
Words and music by Richard Aljinovic
Verse:
- Wake up people, before you lose your heads.
Can’t you see where we’re going, let’s make a mends.
Wasting this, using that, when’s it going to end?
We’ll be kings of the castle, with nothing to spend.
Chorus:
Crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, it’s doing my head.
People walking around, like the living dead!
Crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, it’s doing my head.
Wake up people! It’s time we start to mend.
Life, before it ends.
Verse:
- We let the players, rule our lives.
We give away our power, and that’s not right.
Be they leaders of countries or business.
Wake up people! Their using us, calling it success!
Chorus:
Crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, it’s doing my head.
People walking around, like the living dead!
Crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, it’s doing my head.
Wake up people! It’s time we start to mend.
Life, before it ends.
Verse:
- Peaceful revolution, is what it takes.
Wake up to the power of the masses, then we can’t fail.
Say no, to the greed and the violence that prevails.
If we say no together, it’s got to change.
Chorus:
Crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, it’s doing my head.
People walking around, like the living dead!
Crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, it’s doing my head.
Wake up people! It’s time we start to mend.
Life, before it ends.
