- Jesus, Jesus help me
- I'm alone in this world
- and a f**k*d up world it
is too
- tell me, tell me the
story
- the one about eternity
- and the way it's all
gonna be
- WAKE UP WAKE UP DEAD MAN
- WAKE UP WAKE UP DEAD MAN
-
- Jesus, I'm waiting here
boss
- I know you're looking out
for us
- but maybe your hands
aren't free
- your Father, He made the
world in seven
- He's in charge of heaven
- will you put a word in
for me
- WAKE UP WAKE UP DEAD MAN
- WAKE UP WAKE UP DEAD MAN
-
- listen to your words
they'll tell you what to do
- listen over the rhythm
that's confusing you
- listen to the reed in the
saxophone
- listen over the hum of
the radio
- listen over sounds of
blades in rotation
- listen through the
traffic and circulation
- listen as hope and peace
try to rhyme
- listen over marching
bands playing out their time
- WAKE UP WAKE UP DEAD MAN
- WAKE UP WAKE UP DEAD MAN
-
- Jesus, were you just
around the corner?
- did You think to try to
warn her?
- or are you working on
something new?
- if there's an order to
all of this disorder
- is it like a tape
recorder?
- can we rewind it just
once more
- WAKE UP WAKE UP DEAD MAN
- WAKE UP WAKE UP DEAD MAN
