You witness every moment in slow motion just before your gonna crash. It's your wake up call It's your wake up call, yeah You, you better answer your wake up call. Can't act like no one's home Or disconnect your telephone You know that it's ringin' off the wall, yeah You know it's your wake up call. Pull you head out of the sand while you still can and take yourself a little breather. You know that it's a gift and all you got to do is lift up the receiver. It's your wake up call It's your wake up call yeah You better, you better answer your wake up call. Somebody tryin' to tell you somethin' You better wake up and smell the coffee.
