ONLY IN THE MOVIES

TODAY I WOKE UP --- By Brett

today I woke up at seven o’clock
went down to get my car
I heard a voice behind my head (I turn around)
and saw a kid standing there
he had a knife to my back (said he needed a ride)
pushed me into the car (and told me to drive)
what should I do, what should I do
what I wanna know is - will I survive

the kid put a ski mask on his head
then grabbed his machine gun
you know where we’re going (I said I dunno)
he said take me to a school
he jumped out of the car (then he started to run)
he got into the school (I heard shots from a gun)
what did he do, what did he do
what I wanna know is - will I survive

will I survive
cause this only happens in the movies (RIGHT?!)

I kept on driving and got to work
turned on the radio
terrorists attack (our cities going down)
all firemen to the scene
the buildings ablaze (and it’s coming down)
I watch the sky (as it falls to the ground)
what can I do, what can I do
what I wanna know is - will I survive

they just hi-jacked another plane
what more could they want
another attack (a few minutes later)
they hit the Pentagon
the buildings ablaze (and it’s gonna fry)
we got men inside (and their gonna die)
how many dead, how many dead
what I wanna know is - will I survive

will I survive
cause this only happens in the movies (RIGHT?!)

I just got home from a day of hell
and my wife started to cry
she said our boy (was shot at school today)
I can’t take anymore of this life
we went for a drive (thought our lives were done)
a man stopped the car (and pointed his gun)
are we gonna die, are we gonna die
what I wanna know is - will I survive?

he said get outta that car that I now own
we got out and started to run
we ran down the street (to find a cop)
but there’s never one around
we heard a car squeal (it was a drunk driver)
it was aimed at us (now our lives are over)
now I know were gonna die
now I know were all gonna die

we’re all gonna die
cause this only happens in the movies (RIGHT?!)
