Wake Up
Honest Bob and the Factory-to-Dealer Incentives Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We could jump from a supersonic aircraft
We could dump all our toxins in the bay
We could do the things that other lovers do
But I just want to wake up next to you
I just want to wake up next to you

We could drink all your amniotic fluid
We could think it was going to taste okay
We could hold each other's breath until we're blue
But I just want to wake up next to you
I just want to wake up next to you
I just want to slowly regain consciousness
Look at the floor and see your dress
And fall asleep in your caress again

We could party like it's 1992
But I just want to wake up next to you
I just want to wake up next to you

And I would say that there's nothing I would rather do
Than start the day by remembering that I got you
Lullaby and good night, I can't wait till daylight

We could live in the wreck of the Titanic
We could give all our cartilage away
We could cuddle, we could snuggle, we could screw
But I just want to wake up next to you
I just want to wake up next to you
I just want to see your softly sleeping face
Suspended in a state of grace
And fall asleep in your embrace again

I just want to wake up next to you




I just want to wake up next to you
I just want to wake up in the morning next to you

Overall Meaning

However, the point the songwriter is trying to make is that none of these grand gestures or reckless behavior can compare to something as simple and intimate as waking up next to the one they love.


The lyrics then go on to list other comical suggestions, like drinking amniotic fluid and living in the wreck of the Titanic, but the main theme remains the same - the desire to spend the morning next to their loved one and cherish these moments of closeness. The lyrics also express the feeling of falling asleep in their loved one's embrace and waking up to their softly sleeping face.
