Lyrics
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
Yeah, 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
Yeah, toy soldiers off to war
You swing your rattle down (hand puppets storm the beach, fire trucks trapped out of reach)
(Hand puppets storm the beach, fire trucks trapped out of reach)
Call to arms, the trumpets sound (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 'til death, crossfire from the marionettes)
Robots, chessmen standing guard (stuffed bears hold the hill 'til 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
Yeah, toy soldiers off to war
Off to war, off to war
So close your little eyes
