| She woke me up with a bang, bang | |
| Looking' over cross 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 way side looking 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 pom-pom 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 | |
| You see this woman woke me up at a quarter to three | |
| 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 an old man to present my | |
| So I headed way down to the big pier | |
| To await and confront my big fear | |
| I wheeled around behind to my blindside 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 and tell me just where I'm going" | |
| He pointed to a conk 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 | |
| I said, "Hey, hey mister man | |
| I know you don't know who you think I, think I am" | |
| But I can safely say that I should have been sleeping | |
| Been sleeping, been sleeping | |
| Been sleeping the day away | |
| I said, "'Xcuse me, you got the time | |
| He shrugged his shoulders | |
| Said, "Get a spine," coconut hit me on the head | |
| Jonesin' for a fig | |
| I booked last night I need another fix, Dig | |
| Just then I see a twinkle, twinkle in the old man's eye | |
| And a wave tossed bottle is thrown to the sky | |
| I caught it on the rebound it landed with a soft sound | |
| I took out the message and put the bottle down | |
| Inside was the antidote to the spell | |
| And I read it to the man 'cause he couldn't read so well | |
| Said, "Don't worry about a thing you know you path is true" | |
| Just ease your mind have a banana or two | |
| Well goodness, goodness, woe is me | |
| The man nearly flipped to learn that he was free | |
| But just before we left and started kicking it | |
| I picked up the bottle and stop sixed it | |
| Kick kick, shuffle shuffle back to the beach | |
| With a tune on my lips and my quest in reach | |
| If that woman comes to you with her song so sweet | |
| Say damn let the poor sucker sleep | |
| 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 find |
