Gather round while I'll explain
On what goes on when it gets late
Not long till midnight, it's five to twelve
Get together and be yourself
There's people out there bothering
Some have fears, some wondering
Some black,
some white,
some tall,
some thin Doesn't matter what kind of skin
Go wake up,
make other plans Go wake up,
reach your hand
Go wake up,
don't be blind Go wake up,
just be kind
Go wake up,
know you're right Go wake up,
get up and fight
Go wake up
Go wake up
There's people out there bothering Some have fears,
some wondering
Some black,
some white,
some tall,
some thin Doesn't matter what kind of skin
Don't stop to figure out a plan Don't negotiate with a fearing man
Don't close your eyes Step in the spotlight
Go wake up,
make other plans Go wake up,
reach your hand
Go wake up,
don't be blind Go wake up,
just be kind
Go wake up,
know you're right Go wake up,
get up and fight
Go wake up Go wake up
We'll gather round while I'll explain
