Oh, Lord, Wake The Dead!

Voltaire


You better look down and shake your head
Look down and shake your head
Get down and shake a leg
Get down and shake a leg
You'll jump down and wake the dead
Jump down and wake them oh lord. oh lord.

You better look down and shake your head
Look down and shake your head
Get down and shake a leg
Get down and shake a leg
You better jump down and wake the dead
Jump down and wake them oh lord. oh lord.

Oh lord, can it be true?
These things they say about you
Ooh what am I to do?
Oh lord

When I looked out of my window, everything I see
Is hate and murder, stabbin', stealin', rape and larceny
Well I heard that you can stop it lord, but you just let it be
It make ya look down and shake your head

They act like rabid monkeys chained up in a zoo
And the bible says that each of us was modeled after you
Well hell that should offend you lord, if it does here's what you do

You aughta look down and shake your head
Look down and shake your head
Get down and shake a leg
Get down and shake a leg
Well jump down and wake the dead
Jump down and wake them oh lord. oh lord.

Oh lord, can you see, what this has done to me
I've lost my faith with thee, mostly

Well the preacher on the tv, tells me if I'm poor
I should give him all my money, cause the lord'll give me more
Well I saw him wink and drag a sack of cash right out the door
Bought himself a cadillac and now I got less than before

Look down and shake your head
Look down and shake your head
Get down and shake a leg
Get down and shake a leg
You better jump down and wake the dead
Jump down and wake them oh lord. oh lord.

You aughta look down and shake your head
Look down and shake your head
Get down and shake a leg
You better jump down and wake the dead
Jump down and wake them oh lord. oh lord.

They say you'll bring down armageddon
They say you'll break the seven seals
Well I hope you bring down armageddon
Cause through the fire and brimstone
At least I'll finally know you're real

Real, real, real, wow!

Oh lord, how can it be?
That you won't talk to me,
Oooh, woe is me, poor me

Look down and shake your head
Look down and shake your head
Get down and shake a leg
Get down and shake a leg
You better jump down and wake the dead
Jump down and wake them oh lord. oh lord.

Look down and shake your head
Look down and shake your head
Get down and shake a leg
Get down and shake a leg
You better jump down and wake the dead
Jump down and wake them oh lord. oh lord.

People on the street
They're ugly, mean and rude
They're bumping into me, they're bumping into you.
They never say excuse me or how do you do oh lord

I swear to you the next fool who come shootin' his mouth off
??? his almighty friend up in the sky
He's gonna get a mighty load of me when I sound off
In the way of kick right in his eye

Look like my landlord and ??? where I sit
Always pay my rent and you never fix your "shut yo' mouth!"
You should take a look around lord, your world is just the pits
Oh lord, woooaaaah looord
