I saw a man on the side of the road
with a sign that said
'will work for food'
I tried to look busy til the light turned green
I saw a bear on tv
and his friends were all drowning
cause their homes were turning to water
a strange kinda sad big old bear
i'm sure he would happily eat me
he'd tear me to pieces that bear
wake up sleepy head i think the sun's
a little brighter today
smile and watch the icicles melt away
and see that waters rising
summer's here to stay and all those
summer games will last forever
go down to the shore, kick off your shoes
dive in the empty ocean
tell me everything will be okay
if i just stay on my knees and keep praying
believing in something
tell me everything is all taken care of
by those qualified to take care of it all
wake up sleepy head i think the sun's
a little brighter today
smile and watch the icicles melt away
and see that waters rising
summer's here to stay and all those
summer breeze will blow forever
go down to the shore, kick off your shoes
dive in the empty ocean
one day do you think we'll wake up
in a world on its way to getting better
and if so can you tell me how?
i've been thinking that lately
the blood is increasing
the tourniquet's not keeping hold
in spite of our twisting
though we would like to believe that we are
we are not in control
though we would love to believe
wake up sleepy head i think the sun's
a little brighter today
smile and watch the icicles melt away
and see that waters rising
summer's here to stay and all those
summer girls will dance forever
go down to the shore, kick off your shoes
dive in the empty ocean
