Wake Up Everybody Lyrics

Wake up, everybody

No more sleepin' in bed

No more backward thinkin'

Time for thinkin' ahead

The world has changed

So very much

From what it used to be

There is so much hatred

War and poverty



Wake up, all you teachers

Time to teach a new way

Maybe then they'll listen

To what you have to say

'Cause they're the ones who's coming up

And the world is in their hands

So when you teach the children

Teach 'em the very best you can



The world won't get no better

If you just let it be, na, na, na, na, na, na

The world won't get no better

We gotta change it, yeah

For you and me

For you and me

For you and me

For you and me



Wake up, all the doctors

Make the old people well

They're the ones who suffer

And catch all the hell

But they don't have so very long

Before their Judgment Day

So won't'cha make them happy

Before they pass away



Wake up, all you builders

Time to build a new land

I know we can do it

If we all lend a hand

The only thing we have to do

Is put it in our mind

Surely things will work out

They do it everytime



The world won't get no better

If you just let it be, na, na, na, na, na, na

The world won't get no better

We gotta change it, yeah

For you and me

For you and me

For you and me

For you and me



The world won't get no better

The hood won't get no better

The world won't get no better

We gotta change it, yeah

For you and me
