Wake up Everybody

Written by：John Whitehead/Gene McFadden/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 whoa oh

Wake up all the teachers

Time to teach a new way

Maybe then they'll listen

To what'cha 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 na na na na na na na na

The world won't get no better

We gotta change the world

Just you and me yeah

Wake up all the doctors

Make the old people well

They're the ones who suffer

And who catch all the hell

But they don't have so very long

Before the judgment day

So won't'cha 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 minds

Surely things will work out

They do it every time

The world won't get no better

If we just let it be na na na na na na na

The world won't get no better

We gotta change the world

Just you and me yeah

Can't do it alone

I need some help y'all

Can't do it alone no

Wake up everybody

Wake up get up everybody

Wake up get up everybody yeah

Wake up get up everybody

I'm talkin' about the d**e pusher

Stop pushin' that d**e

D**e users

Stop usin' the d**e

Wake up yeah

Everybody

Wake up get up everybody
