lyrics

WAKE UP
(Ruarri Joseph)

The sun is a floodlight
There’s no place to hide
It’s just another day
She spied me a keeper
Made fun of my voice
Knelt at the altar

You should be famous
You should be in the papers
Without your make up
There’s no problem
Until you make one
Think I’d better wake up

Your face is familiar
Your pain not so
Gimme the keys
The drip of the citrus
The smell of the hide
I can’t seem to toughen up

You should be famous
You should be in the papers
Without your makeup
There’s no problem
Until you make one
Think I’d better wake up

Mud on the new sheets
Ash on the teeth
The fizz of the ginger
She won’t say yes
But I can’t say no
Thank god for the radio

You should be famous
You should be in the papers
Without your makeup
There’s no problem
Until you make one
Think I’d better wake up

You’re so rude
You got some kind of attitude
With your cards face up
There’s no problem
So I’m gonna make one
Time for me to wake up
