| Now I know Mother Nature feels very, very, very disgusted |
| With you and you, and especially you |
| Because we have really played a sho’nuff rip-off game on Mother Nature |
| We’ll kill all the grass |
| And won’t let the cool breeze last |
| We just won’t let the water flow |
| And won’t let the natural things grow |
| I know sometimes you feel the world has turned its back on you |
| But don’t give up, heh, it’ll come through for you |
| So wake up, people |
| Wake up, people |
| Give yourself a chance |
| You owe that to yourself |
| So wake up, people, give yourself a chance to live |
| This morning I woke up, heh, feeling kinda bad |
| I missed all the cool breeze, and the clear air that I had |
| Ah, ooh, I’ve got to wake up |
| We’ve got to wake up |
| Let’s give ourself a chance |
| We owe that to ourselves |
| Wake on up, we got to wake right up |
| Ah, woo-hoo, we wanna wake on up |
| Sometimes I get so uptight |
| I feel, feel, feel, feel, feel like the world is gonna clean outta sight |
| People, come on back |
| We just can’t afford to overlook the crossroads |
| Let’s go back, let’s go back |
| And let’s go right on back |
| And live |
