Just heard this oldie but goodie by Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes in my car..... I never really listened to all the words in the past.... Also, is a similar, contemporary version by the Dave Matthews Band, to follow below.....
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 whatcha have to say 'Cause they're the ones who's coming up And the world is in their hands When you teach the children Teach em the very best you can.
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 old' people well They're the ones who suffer an' who catch all the hell But they don't have so very long before the 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
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
DAVE MATTHEWS BAND LYRICS
"Everybody Wake Up"
Everybody wake up If your living with your eyes closed See the man with a bomb in his hand Everybody wake up
Oh baby it's not easy sometimes They build these walls ever higher and hide behind them Seems an odd way to try and make things right Oh I feel like I go crazy sometimes
Our finest hour arrives See the pig dressed in his finest fine The believers stand behind him and smile As the day lights up with fire
Everybody wake up If your living with your eyes closed See the man with a bomb in his hand Everybody wake up
I Remember the words of the misguided fool Do unto others as you'd have them do Not an eye for an eye is the golden rule Just leaves a room full of blind men
And the finest hour arrives See the pig dressed in his finest fine Don't believe him leave and stand behind him and smile As the day lights up with fire
Everybody wake up [etc]....
Everybody wake up if your living with your eyes closed see the man with a bomb in his hand Everybody wake up
