David, ah, you shouldn't do that
And maybe, well as a matter of fact
Gotta have responsibilities
And try your very best to please the wolves at your back

Don't go telling me
that everything must have a reason
Because you're wrong, 'cause you're wrong
'cause you're wrong, wrong, wrong
There's a whole world out there waiting for you
if you'll just stop dreaming
Wake up soon

And now Jimmy, oh, come on, listen to me good
Because life don't come so easy
Who told you that it would?
Oh, so many people tell you what to do
And you believe them, that's the trouble with you
Just think for yourself!

And don't go telling me
that everything must have a reason
Because you're wrong, 'cause you're wrong
'cause you're wrong, wrong, wrong
There's a whole world out there waiting for you
if you'll just stop dreaming
you better wake up soon
you better just stop dreaming

No, don't go telling me
that everything must have a reason
Because you're wrong, 'cause you're wrong
'cause you're wrong, wrong, wrong
Take your head out of the clouds
find something to believe in
You gotta wake up soon boy

Well, pretty soon, pretty soon
You've gotta learn your right from wrong
Oh, every day, every night
Well, come on, learn to be strong

Well you're wrong, 'cause you're wrong
'cause you're wrong, wrong, wong
You better wake up soon you better just stop dreaming

So don't go telling me
that everything must have a reason
Because you're wrong, 'cause you're wrong
'cause you're wrong, wrong, wrong
There's a whole world out there waiting for you
if you'll just stop dreaming
you better wake up soon
you better just stop dreaming

No, don't go telling me
that everything must have a reason
Because you're wrong, 'cause you're wrong
'cause you're wrong, wrong, wrong
Take your head out of the clouds
find something to believe in

Gotta wake up soon, boy
Wake up soon
Gotta wake up soon, boy

Yeah, wake up soon
Better wake up soon, boy
Wake up, wake up
