Wake Up You Little Fool Lyrics

The clock strikes midnight
As the dream slips through your hands
This is no dress rehearsal
There is no second chance
You stare into the mirror
Pour cool water on your face
You're lookin' at a stranger
And you feel so out of place

Sometimes I want to take you
And shake you
Out of this dream
I'm talking to you
Wake up, you little fool
Wake up, you little fool

Now don't you ever wonder
What it feels like to be free
When you're starin' at a future
That's not what it used to be
You're reaching for something you don't understand
Trying to care but you don't give a d***
You're at the controls but you're not in command
And just growin' older don't make you a man

Wake up you little fool
Wake up you little fool

(Solo)

Sometimes I want to take you
And shake you
Out of this dream
I'm talking to you
Wake up, you little fool
Wake up, you little fool
Wake up you little fool
You're reaching for something you don't understand
Wake up you little fool
Trying to care but you don't give a d***
Wake up you little fool
You're at the controls but you're not in command
Oh, wake up you little fool
Just growin' older don't make you a man
Oh, wake up you little fool
Wake up you little fool
