WAKE UP AUSTRALIA

Wake up Australia

The early birds are singing, the day is dawning.

The sun in the sky has, kissed you good morning.

The grass in the garden, is covered with dew

and a familiar voice, is calling out to you.

Wake up now, Australia needs you.

Open up the shutters and, greet the new day.

Pitch in children, and bring home the harvest

if you don't work then you, won't get paid.

Plant the seeds and, lay the foundation.

Brothers and sisters should, all lend a hand.

It's up to us to, set the example,

so the kids would be proud to, inherit this land.

Wake up now, Australia needs you ...

The kookaburra laughs on the edge of town

as the afternoon sun, completes it's round.

You've got to spend your day just, doing your best,

Cause each day is a step on the, road to success.

Wake up now, Australia needs you.

Open up the shutters and, greet the new day.

Pitch in children and, bring home the harvest

if you don't work then you, won't … get … paid.
