Like Cleopatra got the masses at my feet
Got a living dwell down on easy street
And I'm the latest craze
And if you stay awhile
Inevitably you're gonna bite my style in your later days
Now let me tell you what is fact and what is true
I get high a lot ain't got much to do
I'm always in a daze
That was just a dream I had last night in my bubble bath
Next to my wishing well
Get up get out and do somethin
Don't let the days of your life pass you by
Get up get out and do somethin
How will you make it if you never even try?
Get up get out and do somethin
Can't spend your whole life tryin to get high
You got to get up get out and do somethin
Cuz you and I gotta do for you and I
What's been happenin? how you doin? where you been?
I'm further behind now than I was back then
Lost in some ole maze
Some years have passed me by
All I want is to go get high
I'll get it together some other day
In my dreams I dwell cuz all my dreams are swell
And you would too, if you could see them
That's when I know
I gotta go get up get out
Get up get out and do somethin
Don't let the days of your life pass you by
Get up get out and do somethin
How will you make it if you never even try?
Get up get out and do somethin
Can't spend your whole life tryin to get high
You got to get up get out and do somethin
Cuz you and I gotta do for you and I
In my dreams I dwell cuz all my dreams are swell
And you would too
