Wake up, wake up King in a catholic style With your man With your man make up And your big money business smile Cut 'em up, cut 'em up Crucial to every child With a mind With a mind made up And your main man confidence smile The residential black sea band They rose up out of a sinking sand The presidential elect man said For what you want take me instead Wake up, wake up Exercise your every right With your plan On the up and up And your prize money struggle in sight Cut 'em up, cut 'em up Physical in every way Tough enough, tough enough Face up And blow your big body blues away
