[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
Why'd you try to wear me down?
How much is it worth for you to wear the crown?
And I know it's hard for you to back down now
[Chorus]
Hey! Hey!
But you've gotta wake up
Hey! Hey!
And you've gotta grow up
Hey! Hey!
And you've gotta stop counting the notches on your belt (Hey! Hey!)
[Verse 2]
The little games we play with our heads
Keep creeping back to me in little tiny threads
And I know just why you won't look me in the eye
[Chorus]
Hey! Hey!
But you've gotta wake up
Hey! Hey!
And you've gotta grow up
Hey! Hey!
And you've gotta stop counting the notches on your belt (Hey! Hey!)
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh, oh-ah
Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey!
[Verse 3]
I know it's not easy to live alone
But that's they way it is each day that you forget to phone
Oh, I know it's hard when you think you're in control
[Chorus]
Hey! Hey!
But you've gotta wake up
Hey! Hey!
And you've gotta grow up
Hey! Hey!
And you've gotta stop counting the notches on your belt (Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)
[Post-Chorus]
Wake up (Hey! Hey!)
Grow up (Hey! Hey!)
Oh (Hey! Hey!)
[Outro]
You've gotta wake up
And you've gotta grow up
And you've gotta stop counting
Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey!
