Get Up
Lyrics
Get out of bed
And you look in the mirror
And the haze in your head
Dosn't get any clearer
The boss man says
You're gonna lose your job
You're gonna lose you pay
If you're late, late
And the weather man says
It's gonna be sunny
And it starts to rain
And you don't think it's funny
So you visit your friends
But there's no one home
And you don't have a dime
And you can't even call them on the phone
So get up
Get up
(repeat 6 times)
Your stomach so empty
And you need some food
So you distract yourself
But it just dosn't do any good
You think about going home
But it cant be the same
Cause they'll never change
And they don't wanna know
About the sin of you
And the wasting of time
They wanna grab your hair
And pull you in line
So get up
Get up
(repeat 6 times)
Pick yourself up off the ground
No one can push you around
Don't let it get you down
You get up
(repeat 4 times)
So get up
Another day goes by
And you look in the mirror
And the haze in your head
Gets a little bit clearer
And you realize
That the silly things
That used to get you down
We're just a test to see
If you could get up
So get up
Get up
(repeat 6 times)
Pick yourself off the ground
No one can push you around
You get up
(repeat 2 times)
Get up
(repeat 14 times)
Whats that you say baby?
Get yourself up off the ground
(repeat & fade)
