Wake Up Dead Man lyrics

Jesus, Jesus help me

I'm alone in this world

And a fucked-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 the 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 the sound 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 and warn her?

Were you working on something new?

If there's an order in 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.

Wake up, wake up dead man.
