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

Lyrics continue below...

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
