Analysis of Wake Up
Belinda Richmond 1979 (Chicago)
Wake Up, Make Haste
Just Look Around.
Pay Attention to What’s
About to go Down.
Wake Up, Look Alive
Don’t Fall Asleep,
You Might Miss Out
On Something So Deep.
Wake Up, Wake Up
Wipe the Sleep from your Eyes.
These Are the Many Days
Of Our Lives.
Wake Up, Stay Awake
Or You Might Miss Out.
Of the meaning of Life and
What its All About.
