WAKE UP DEAD MAN
U2
Jesus,
Jesus help me
I`m
alone in this world
and
a fucked up world it is too
tell
me, tell me the story
the
one about eternity
and
the way it`s all gonna be
wake
up, wake up dead man
wake
up, wake up dead man
Jesus,
I`m waiting here boss
I
know you`re looking out for us
but
maybe your hands aren`t free
your
Father, He made the world in seven
He`s
in charge of heaven
will
you put a word in for me
wake
up, wake up dead man
wake
up, wake up dead man
listen
to your words they`ll tell you what to do
listen
over the rhythm that`s confusing you
listen
to the reed in the saxophone
listen
over the hum of the radio
listen
over the sounds of blades in rotation
listen
through the traffic and circulation
listen
as hope and peace try to rhyme
listen
over marching bands playing out their time
wake
up, wake up dead man
wake
up, wake up dead man
Jesus,
were you just around the corner?
did
you think to try and warn her?
or
are you working on something new?
if
there`s an order in all of this disorder
is
it like a tape recorder?
can
we rewind it just once more?
wake
up, wake up dead man
wake
up, wake up dead man
