Wake up
Wake up
Wake up
Wake up

You wake up say you're gonna do something
Stay at home and you just do nothing
You wake up say you're gonna do something
Stay at home and you just do nothing
You wake up say you're gonna do something
Stay at home and you just do nothing
You wake up say you're gonna do something
You wake up say you're gonna do something

I build the dope bigger than a telescope
I look through it and I see the stars
Like Jonny Rotten I've forgotten all the rhymes I wrote
Chinanski and I be mad drunk in bars
Didn't have the money to pay the tab
Barman got crazy mad, threw on the street
Landed at the feet of two neighbourhood strawberries
Wanted us to suck their juices

You wake up say you're gonna do something
Stay at home and you just do nothing
You wake up say you're gonna do something
Stay at home and you just do nothing
You wake up say you're gonna do something
Stay at home and you just do nothing
You wake up say you're gonna do something
You wake up say you’re gonna do something

Ah yah bla bla bla
Ah yah bla bla bla
Ah yah bla bla bla
Ah yah bla bla bla

Sitting outside your house in your car
Pulling out the wires, waiting for the spark
Listen to the DJ beaming down from Mars
My DJ's name is Sun Rah
Live not too far from the Elysee Montmartre
Used to hang-out in the jungle bar
Drink the rhum punch from Africa
Drink the rhum punch from Africa

You wake up say you're gonna do something
Stay at home and you just do nothing
You wake up say you're gonna do something
Stay at home and you just do nothing
You wake up say you're gonna do something
Stay at home and you just do nothing
You wake up say you're gonna do something
You wake up say you're gonna do something

You just do nothing
You just do nothing
You just do nothing
You just do nothing
