From the recording Album 2022
“Wake Up!” is an energetic and relatable anthem urging listeners to break free from autopilot and seek real meaning in life. Through vivid snapshots of everyday routines—working for money, chasing thrills, and meeting parental expectations—the song playfully asks, “What are you really living for?” With catchy choruses and a wake-up call to rise and shine, it’s a reminder not to sleepwalk through life, but to embrace each day with purpose and curiosity. “Wake Up!” is both a humorous look at growing up and a motivational push to make every moment count.
Lyrics
Joey works so he can make some money he needs money so that he can live
I asked him what he was living for he said that he had to go to work
Larry likes to ride the roller coaster he says that it makes him feel alive
I asked him what he was living for he said that he needs another ride
Wake up! Wake up! It’s time to wake up! Rise and shine it’s a beautiful day
Wake up! Wake up! You’d better wake up! Unless you’re planning on sleeping your life away
When I was a kid my father wanted three things from me, he wanted me to be a BoyScout, wanted me to play baseball and he wanted me to go to college
My first camping trip I was bit by a tick and I quit the Boy Scouts, I played baseball,they stuck me in right field, got hit in the head with the ball and that was it for my baseball career, and as for college...
My old friends like to have a good time we could run all day dance all night
If you asked us what we were living for we thought you were there to start a fight
Wake up! Wake up! It’s time to wake up! Rise and shine it’s a beautiful day
Wake up! Wake up! You’d better wake up! Unless you’re planning on sleeping your life, Unless you’re planning on sleeping your life, Unless you’re planning on sleeping your life away
