Story Behind the Song
just recently I had a lil' drama with my girl about me sleeping too much. Well, a man's gotta get some sleep!!! But, I apologized to her.
Lyrics
(sleeping snoring)
(Alarm going off)
(Edward trying to turn it off)
ahh.......
It's like, I'm in a dream,
I'm a big singer,
I tour all over, have lots of fans,
But then a bright light hits me and I hear,
"Edward, wake up, time to go to school!",
oh no....
"Now"
ahhh man,
alright, I'm getting up...
uh, check it out,
Verse 1:
Have you ever had,
The craving to sleep bad,
It's all starts from being a little kid,
We play everywhere, (play everywhere)
Do what we dare, (do what we dare)
As we get a bit older,
"I never get any sleep"
It's not fair....,
Sleep is my best friend, (yes it is)
Nobody could take it away my friend,
Rap:
well.......
Except when mom or dad comes in,
And tell me Ed you better get your butt movin',
They leave on the light so I could open my eyes,
I gotta get up,
Is how I'm hypnotised,
I quickly throw another pillow over my face,
My parents come and check on me to see I'm aware,
(um nope), "Edward get up!"
Chorus:
Wake up, it's time to move on,
Time to be strong,
And not be lazy,
Wake up, Wake up,
Oh I Gotta see the world,
Live the day,
And not be lazy,
Wake up, ohhh....
For those who have school, (wake)
For those who have work, (wake)
All kids and parents, (wake)
Wake up,
My daddy told,
To be productive,
To make it in this world,
Verse 2:
Now I'm graduated,
But I had lost a lot of sleep,
What's the next thing parents say?,
"Gotta getta job!"
ahhhhh, okay....
Now I'm makin' money,
Workin' all I can,
Doin' 4 10's and workin' OT,
Makes me sleep as much as I can,
One thing about every job,
Is having good attendance, ohhhh
I want to sleep late and just call into work, (oh oh oh oh oh)
But I don't wanna be suspended, (ohhhhh)
I gotta...
Chorus:
Wake up, it's time to move on,
Time to be strong,
And not be lazy,
Wake up, Wake up,
Oh I Gotta see the world,
Live the day,
And not be lazy,
Wake up, ohhh....
For those who have school, (wake)
For those who have work, (wake)
All kids and parents, (wake)
Wake up,
My daddy told,
To be productive,
To make it in this world,
Verse 3:
We love to sleep,
It keeps our body movin',
But ya gotta get up,
From the start of the day,
Everybody help me sing.....
We are all equal,
Clubbing and going to the bar,
Staying out late to have some fun,
Grouchiness becomes our parts...
Oh If you go out late at night,
Or stay up and watch TV,
Or do something to not get sleep,
Tomorrow you'll feel weezy!!,
If you got something you gotta do,
Early next morning,
Get at least 6 hours of sleep,
Unless you're from the millitary!,
Chorus:
Wake up, it's time to move on, (wake up)
Time to be strong,
And not be lazy,
Wake up, Wake up,
Oh I Gotta see the world,
Live the day,
And not be lazy,
Wake up, ohhh....
For those who have school, (wake)
For those who have work, (wake)
All kids and parents, (wake)
Wake up,
My daddy told,
To be productive,
To make it in this world,
Wake up, it's time to move on,
Time to be strong,
And not be lazy,
Wake up, Wake up,
Oh I Gotta see the world,
Live the day,
And not be lazy,
Wake up, ohhh....
For those who have school, (wake)
For those who have work, (wake)
All kids and parents, (wake)
Wake up,
My daddy told,
To be productive,
To make it in this world,
Alright, I'm getting up....gees!
