So wake up, sleepy one

It's time to save your world



Steal dreams and give to you

Shoplift a thought or two

All children touch the sun

Burn fingers one by one, by one



Will this earth be good to you?

Keep you clean or stain through?



So wake up, sleepy one

It's time to save your world

You're where the wild things are

Toy soldiers off to war



Big eyes to open soon

Believing all under sun and moon

But does heaven know you're here?

And did they give you smiles or tears?

No, no tears



Will this earth be good to you?

Keep you clean or stain through?  



So wake up, sleepy one

It's time to save your world

You're where the wild things are

Toy soldiers off to war



You swing your rattle down

(Hand puppets storm the beach

Fire trucks trapped out of reach)

Call to arms, the trumpets sound

(Hand puppets storm the beach

Fire trucks trapped out of reach

All clowns reinforce the rear

Slingshots fire into the air)

Toy horses start the charge

(All clowns reinforce the rear

Slingshots fire into the air

Stuffed bears hold the hill till death

Crossfire from the marionettes)

Robot chessmen standing guard

(Stuffed bears hold the hill till death

Crossfire from the marionettes

We shall never surrender)



All you children touch the sun

Burn your fingers one by one

Will this earth be good to you?

Keep you clean or stain through?  



So wake up, sleepy one

It's time to save your world

You're where the wild things are

Toy soldiers off to war 

Off to war

Off to war



So close your little eyes
