lyrics

Wake up and smell the coffee
It's coming to the boil
And now we start to hunger
It's time to feed our souls

Wake up and feel the morning
The night has rolled away
We have anew beginning
As we greet a brand new day

Save the child I used to be
From the adult that has strangled me
Equal born and equal bred
That's what the founding fathers said.

Wake up and smell the coffee
It's coming to the boil
And now we start to hunger
It's time to feed our souls

Though we feast and fast at many different dawns
We all break our bread at the table as one
Though we beat our rhythms on many different drums
We all spin our tunes to the same universal hum

Wake up and smell the coffee
It's coming to the boil
And now we start to hunger
It's time to feed our souls
It's time to feed our souls
