Wake Up
XTC You put your cleanest dirty shirt on Then you stagger down to meet the dawn You take a ride upon a bus, it's just a fuss You get to know a morning face You know it keeps you born You get to join the human race You get to know the world Has passed you by Who cares? You might be dead Who cares? You wrote the note Who cares? You stayed in bed Wake up! Who cares? You might have spoke You take a snack to fill the gap And then you're ready for another shift Your attention was diverted By the girl who smiled and made the lift It's in one ear and then it's out You didn't notice that the record's over The radio is blaring out Who cares? You might be dead Who cares? You stayed in bed Who cares? You wrote the note Who cares? You might have spoke In the road a crowd had gathered The blood is running down the gutter Wake up! And a man was close to dead His body's wriggling like an eel While you're yawning, nothing's said Somebody better go and get a blanket They got no sense, no touch, no feel Who cares? You might be dead Who cares? You stayed in bed Who cares? You might have spoke Who cares? You wrote the note Who cares |
