Get Up

(Verse 1)

Hands go down to the table

The glare that's in her eyes

She leans in close and says to me,

"You're a victim of your lies."

Well, I remember when I was younger,

And didn't have a care in the world;

But now it's not so simple,

And I care too much for the world.

(Chorus)

Get up,

Get on your feet, boy,

She said, the problem's only as big as

You let it... be.

Get up,

And hit the street, boy,

You'll never get to where you're going

If you don't... move your feet.

(Verse 2)

I wanna just sit and cry

About how life has done me

But her words echo in my head

And say the key to freedom is me.

Well, I remember when I was younger,

And thought everything was just fine,

But now it ain't that simple,

Reasons are much harder to find.

(Chorus)

Get up,

Get on your feet, boy,

She said, the problem's only as big as

You let it... be.

Get up,

And hit the street, boy,

You'll never get to where you're going

If you don't... move your feet.

(Bridge)

Nothing changes by itself

It needs a little push from something else

So don't just sit and think it

Suddenly

Gets better for you

And better for me...

(Chorus)

Get up,

Get on your feet, boy,

She said, the problem's only as big as

You let it... be.

Get up,

And hit the street, boy,

You'll never get to where you're going

If you don't...

Get up (get on your feet, boy)

Get up (get on your feet, boy)

Get up (get on your feet, boy)

Get up...

Get up...
