Wake Up

You put your cleanest dirty shirt on Then you stagger down to meet the dawn You take a ride upon a bus, it's just a fuss You know it keeps you born You get to know a morning face You get to join the human race You get to know the world Has passed you by Who cares? You might be dead Who cares? You stayed in bed Who cares? You wrote the note Who cares? You might have spoke Wake up! You take a snack to fill the gap And then you're ready for another shift Your attention was diverted By the girl who smiled and made the lift The radio is blaring out It's in one ear and then it's out You didn't notice that the record's over Who cares? You might be dead Who cares? You stayed in bed Who cares? You wrote the note Who cares? You might have spoke Wake up! In the road a crowd had gathered And a man was close to dead The blood is running down the gutter While you're yawning, nothing's said His body's wriggling like an eel They got no sense, no touch, no feel Somebody better go and get a blanket Who cares? You might be dead Who cares? You stayed in bed Who cares? You wrote the note Who cares? You might have spoke Who cares?
