Wake Up Everybody Lyrics

Written by Gene McFadden, John Whitehead and Victor Carstarphen

Wake up everybody

No more sleepin' in bed

No more backward thinkin'

Time for thinkin' ahead

The world has changed so very much

From what it used to be

There is so much hatred, war and poverty

Wake up all the teachers

Time to teach a new way

Maybe then they'll listen

To watcha have to say

'Cause they're the ones who are comin' up

And the world is in their hands

When you teach the children

Teach 'em the very best you can

CHORUS:

The world won't get no better

If we just let it be

The world won't get no better

We gotta change it yeah

Just you and me

Wake up all the doctors

Make the sick people well

They're the ones who suffer

Who catch all the hell

But they don't have so long

Before their judgement day

So won'tcha make them happy

Before they pass away

Wake up all the builders

Time to build a new land

I know we can do it

If we all lend a hand

The only thing we have to do

Is put it in our mind

Surely things will work out

They do it every time

CHORUS

Wake up

Let's cure the world's disease

Wake up

Let's set our children free

Wake up

Let's feed the ones who need

Wake up

Stop cutting down our trees. . .

I need to breathe

CHORUS OUT
