Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Be careful, you might hear something
You don't want to hear
Be careful, you might say something
That you really mean
You say, "Take things easy
Go and have some fun"
But my mind is hazy
About times I've spent alone
[Verse 2]
So be careful, you might feel something
You don't want to feel
Be careful, you might learn something
You don't want to know
I say, "Take things steady
Go on and be alone"
I hope your head's aching
From having too much fun
[Bridge]
If I don't know what's cool
Will you call me a loser?
If I don't bend the rules
Will I stay a loser?
[Verse 3]
The selfish gene in me
Has finally come into being
He's teaching me how to be mean
But that's a sorry, sorry state to be in
[Outro]
Stop yawning, stop yearning
Stop yawning, stop yearning
Wake up! Wake up!
Wake up!
Tell me what you wanna do, what you wanna do
What you wanna do, what you wanna do
Is wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up!
What you wanna do, what you wanna do
What you wanna do, what you wanna do
Is wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up!
