Wake Up

Thanks for stoppin' in
This ain't no pop, no Mary Poppins, not a synonym
Junior Gong and Joss Stone, the modern day Janis Joplin
Come to tell you what is happenin'
If you been tuning in
I'm assuming that you're unsatisfied
Unless you don't know the root of the music from the beginning
In this modern day test tube factory that we're living in

What is this nonsense I can't hear through
This combination of money and fools, it's abominable
Uncontrollable
Remember the stage where the flower child rules
And the music was true so the people could choose
Then the suits took control
Promotes a new low

My life is a soundtrack to
A beautiful movement
Composed to get closer to
A revolution
What are you doing?

Wake up
Tell me what is this nonsense
Why can't we be conscious
Of what we're feeding our people
Just wake up
Tell me what is this nonsense
You killed the conscious
With your deliberate evil

What is this shit
Now we're forced to sit
The greenery gone and our soul got split
It's incredulous
How your lyrics got prejudice
Cast your mind back to the sold out flick
When a couple of strings and a mic was it
It's a fashionless show
Unbelievable

My life is a soundtrack to
A beautiful movement
Composed to get closer to
A revolution
Tell me what are you doing?

Wake up
Tell me what is this nonsense
Why can't we be conscious
Of what we're feeding our people
Just wake up
Tell me what is this nonsense
You know that you killed the conscious
With your deliberate evil

First they take your mind
Ambiguous and subliminal
What does singing have to do with my abdominals?
Better read the fine print in the peripherals
Then they take your soul
Him and me lawyer come penpals
Suddenly I hear funny signals
What a sneaky set of individuals
And just before you know
You can't see no residuals
And those who say they have your back
You take it out a straight attack
And sell out for decimals

The whole of you is owned
By somebody else
Your screaming for help
So shake up yourself
The call is coming through
Some truth from me to you

Wake up
What is all of this nonsense
Why can't we be conscious
Of what we're feeding our people, people now
Wake up
Someone tell me whats this nonsense
Can't you be conscious
What you're feeding your people

What's this nonsense
Can't we be conscious
Of what we're feeding our, what we're feeding our nanana
What's this nonsense
Can't we be conscious
Can't we be, can't we be
Now wake up
Wake up
Come on people now, wake up
Wake up for me
Wake up for me, please
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
You got to be conscious
(Ah I fucked up the ending)
