Yeah
She woke me up with the Bang Bang
Lookin` over crossed eyed
Had a big hunch that the world was a big lie
When I got up all the blood to my head
I got so dizzy fell back into my bed
I went over to the wayside
Lookin` for the high tide
What will I find
Will I find
Will I find find
All I saw was a man that had a hat that had a pompom
He`s been there for years
Can someone tell me how long?
Wake up to tell me
Wake up to show me what I could not find
Wake up to tell me
Wake up to show me what I could not
Ya see this woman woke me up at a quarter to 3:00
And I didn`t know it then but she put a spell on me
Said I had to go down to where the cliffs meet the sea
And meet and old man to present my plea
So I headed way down to that big pier
To wait and confront my big fear
I wheeled around behind to my blind side
To find an old man with a lime and a kind eye
Said `Mister, Mister, with your beard so long
Won`t you be a saint tell me just where I`m goin``
He pointed to a conch shell and then to the lime
And said this is all I really need to get by
Wake up to tell me
Wake up to show me what I could not find
Wake up to tell me
Wake up to show me what I could not
Hey (hey) Mister man
I know ya don`t know who ya think I think I am
But I can safely say
That I shoulda been sleepin` (been sleepin`, been sleepin`, been sleepin`...)
The day away
Hey Hey
I said exscuse me
Have you got the time?
He shrugged his shoulders said `Get a spine`
Coconut hit me on the head jonesin` for a fig
`I got booked last night...I need another fix, dig?`
Yeah
Just then i see a twinkle twinkle in the old man`s eye
And a wave tossed bottle is thrown to the sky
I cought it on the rebound and landed with a soft sound
I took out the message and put the bottle down
Inside was the antidote to the spell
I read it to the man `cause he couldn`t read so well
Said don`t worry about a thing ya know your path is true
Just ease your mind have a bannana or two
Well goodness goodness whoa is me
The man nearly flipped to learn he was free
But just before we left he started kickin` it
I picked up the bottle and star sixed it
Kick kick shuffle shuffle back to the beach with a tune on my lips and my quest in reach
That woman come to see you with her song so sweet
Say `d*** let the poor sucker sleep...let him sleep`
Wake up to tell me
Wake up to show me what I could not find
Wake up to tell me
