Wake
Up And Smell The Coffee


I have a dream, strange it may seem
It was my perfect day
Open my eyes. I realize, it is my perfect day
I hope you'll never grow old
Do Do Do. Do Do Do. Do Do Do
Birds in the sky, they look so high
This is my perfect day
I feel the breeze, I feel at ease.
It is my perfect day
I hope you'll never grow old
Forever young, I hope you'll stay, forever young
Do Do Do. Do Do Do. Do Do Do
Close your eyes, close your eyes
Breathe the air, out there
We are free, we can be wide open
For you opened my eyes to the beauty I
see
We will pray, we will stay wide open
Don't analyse, don't analyse
Don't go that way, don't live that way
That would paralyse your evolution
La la la This greatest moment
La la la The greatest day
La la la The greatest love of them all
Close your eyes, close your eyes
Breathe the air, out there
Fantasize, fantasize we are open
For you opened my eyes to the beauty I
see
We will pray, we will stay together
La la la This greatest moment
La la la The greatest day
La la la The greatest love of them all
We better think about the things we say
We better think about the games we play
The world went round, yeah, around and around
We better think about the consequences
We better think about the global censes
If time went down, yeah, if time went down
What about Chernobyl
What about radiation
We don't know, we don't know
What about deprivation, gluttony, the human nation
We don't know, we don't know
For me love is all
Time is ticking out...
Looks like we've screwed up the ozone
layer
I wonder if the politicians care
The dime went down, yeah, if time went down
What about our children then
Is there nothing left for them
We don't know, we don't know
For me love is all
I need the oxygen. I need the oxygen
For me love is all
To do do do
Time is ticking out, yeah, time is ticking out
Terrible thing, it was a terrible thing
To see her dying
It was a terrible thing, it was a terrible
thing
To see her dying, inside, to see her dying
Won't you come out and play the games
we played
Won't you speak out, and say the things you'd say
The lady loved her gold, the lady lost her soul
It was a terrible thing, it was a terrible
thing
To see her dying
It was a terrible thing, it was a terrible
thing
To see her dying, inside, to see her dying
Do you remember, the things we used to
do
Do you remember, the way it was for you
The lady loved her gold, the lady lost her soul
It was a terrible thing, it was a terrible
thing
To see her dying
It was a terrible thing, it was a terrible
thing
To see her dying inside, to see her die
La ah, la ah, la ah
I never had a friend like you, this is
the day
Your skin is white, your eyes are blue, this is the day
But the wind might change, I will still
remain
I will always be there for you
Those thoughts, they circle in my mind,
this is the day
The demoms I can't leave behind, this is the day
Don't be insecure, I'll be at your door
I will always be there for you
Faith will save you, faith will save you
Faith will save you, stay safe
Par forth thy grace into my mind, this
is the day
Par forth thy grace, thou art devine, this is the day
Don't be insecure, I'll be at your door
I'll always be there for you
Faith will save you, faith will save you
Faith will save you, stay safe
But the wind might change, I will still
remain
I will still be here
But the wind might change, I will still
remain
I Will always be there for you
Faith will save you, faith will save you
Faith will save you, stay safe
Come here my lover, something's on your
mind?
Listen to no other, they could be unkind
Hold on to the concept of love, always
darling
Hold on to the concept of love, always
Take life between us, live it like we
choose
They'll never see us, I will hear you call
Hold on to the concept of love, always,
darling
Hold on to the concept of love, always
Night all night, all night
Night all night, all night
Night all night, all night
Night all night, all night
I, I went to hell, I might as well learn
by my mistakes
I, at twenty-four, was insecure, do whatever it takes
Come on and wake up, (wake up, wake up,
wake up
shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up
It's time, smell the coffee, the coffee)
She's only got one reason to live, this
is your life
She's only got one message to give, give it tonight
She's so gorgeous, I'll do anything
She's so gorgeous, I'll lose everything.
Any day!
Come on then wake up, wake up, wake up,
wake up
Shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up
It's time, smell the coffee, the coffee
She's only got one reason to live, this
your life
She's only got one message to give, give it tonight
She's so gorgeous, I'll do anything
She's so gorgeous, I'll lose everything
Any day!
Pretty eyes, pretty eyes
Not a cloud in my day
Not a cloud in my way
Angel eyes, no disguise
No pretension is here
No pretension, no fear
Don't leave me calling
Don't leave me falling
Stay a while, stay a while
I will tell you my mind
I will tell you my mind
I would give everything, just to take
all your pain
Just to take all your pain
Don't leave me calling
Don't leave me falling
I've been down this road before
Now I'm coming back for more
This is like a deja vu, I was born to be with you
Into the night we went to sleep
You and I were ment for keeps
Into the night, we went to play, You and I
[I really hope you'll always be, so in
love with me
I really hope we'll always stay, so attached this way]
So beware of the pitfall
We don't have to change at all
And our light will not burn out
It's what freedom's all about
Into the night we went to sleep
You and I were ment for keeps
Into the night, we went to play
You and I
I really hope you'll always be, so in
love with me
I really hope we'll always stay, so attached this way
I really hope you'll always be, so in
love with me
I really hope we'll always stay, so attached this way
I really hope that we'll always be here
I really hope that you'll always be near
Take me and break me, I'll always be here
I really hope that you'll always be near
My god the years passed me by
Where was I hiding
I've been around the world for some time
It's oblivious now
The morning sun is in my eyes
It doesn't hide the lines
It does not bare a great disguise
Happy birthday baby, happy birthday
Every morning, every morning in time
We're doing fine
I don't remember being young
Was it so much fun
I don't remember feeling this free
It was not for me
I paid a price, sacrificed, it was worth
it then
My time has come I now feel young, begin again.
Happy birthday
Every morning, every morning in time
We're doing fine
Be here a while, might as well smile
Might as well smile
I will be strong, will carry on
And I'll always hold on to my smile
What would you say, would you say that
I'm sad
For feeling this way, ow!
What would you do if you were in my shoes
In mine
Do you know what I think
Do you know what I think about it, about it
I guess you don't know anything
You don't know anything, about it, about it
Dust in my eyes, I realise that I'm thinking
of you
I'll take my car, I will go far and I'll be lonely for you
What would you say, would you say that
I'm sad
For feeling this way, ow!
What would you do if you were in my shoes
In mine
Do you know what I think
Do you know what I think about it, about it
I guess you don't know anything.
You don't know anything, about it, about it...
I didn't understand the things you're
going through
I never understood, I really never knew
Carry on, carry on, carry on
The sun will always shine
Carry on, carry on, carry on
We'll have aglass of wine or a cigarette
Take destiny by the hand and lead it far
away
Take it to another land, we will all decay
Carry on, carry on, carry on
The sun will always shine
Carry on, carry on, carry on
We'll have a glass of wine or a cigarette
But I tried and sighed
He didn't listen to me, I felt that way
Still I tried and sighed
He wouldn't understand me, I felt that way
But you're so young and you don't get
me now
I feel so guilty and you are Chocolate Brown
Chocolate Brown, I can't play
Not too long, I will make it up to you
Chocolate brown
Still I learn and I learn
There's so much to think about you
So much to lose
But it's just so fine and you don't see
it know
Don't make me guilty
Please don't Chocolate Brown
Chocolate Brown, I can't play
Not too long, I will make it up to you
Chocolate brown
As the snow flies
On a cold and gray Chicago mornin'
A poor little baby child is born
In the ghetto x2
And his mother cries
'Cause if there's one thing that she don't need
It's another hungry mouth to feed
In the ghetto x2
So people, don't you understand
The child needs a helping hand
Or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day
Take a look at you and me,
Are we too blind to see,
Do we simply turn our heads
And look the other way?
Well the world turns
And a poor little boy with a runny nose
Plays in the street as the cold wind blows
In the ghetto x2
And his hunger burns
So he starts to roam the streets at night
And he learns how to steal
And he learns how to fight
In the ghetto x2
Then one night in desperation
A young man breaks away
He buys a gun, steals a car
Tries to run, but he doesn't get far
And his mother cries
As a crowd gathers 'round an angry young
man
Face down on the street with a gun in his hand
In the ghetto x2
As her young man dies (in the ghetto)
On a cold and gray Chicago mornin'
another little baby child is born
In the ghetto x4
