Barenaked Ladies Wake Up Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Wake up, I'm coming up
Did you get through the night?
Did the room start to spin
The walls go upside down?

[Verse 2]
Wake up, I'm coming up
The storm is out of sight
How about we go downstairs, put the kettle on?
Lemon or mint, whatever's kicking around
[Chorus]
You hold it down when I'm not around
I never asked you how you're holding on up
You put in full days and who heard you say
Never complained once that you've had enough

[Verse 3]
Wake up, I'm coming up
To carry the load today
I'm bringing my pickup truck Drive your cares away

[Verse 4]
Wake up, I'm coming up
Bringing my pickup truck
Let's get on down to the lake
Maybe there's a path to take
And pick up some skipping stones

[Chorus]
You hold it down whеn I'm not around
I never asked you how you'rе holding on up
You put in full days and who heard you say
Never complained once that you've had enough

[Outro]
You were the first in line, the first on time
Make it easy to get right
You see it all, but if you fall
Who will answer when you call?
