Lyrics: Macy Gray. How Life Is. Do Something.

Get up get out and do somethin'

Like Cleopatra, got the masses at my feet
Gotta living dwell down on Easy Street
And I'm the latest craze, oh yeah
And if you stay awhile
Inevitably you gonna bite my style
In your later days

Now let me tell you what is fact and what is true
I get high a lot ain't got much to do
I'm always in a daze
That was just a dream I had
Last night in my bubble bath
Next to my wishing well, oh yeah you gotta

Get up get out and do somethin'
Don't let the days of your life pass you by, you got to
Get up get out and do somethin'
How will you make it if you never even try?
Get up get out and do somethin'
Can't spend your whole life trying to get high, you got to
Get up get out and do somethin'
'Coz you and I got to do for you and I

What's been happenin'? How you doin'? Where you been?
I'm further behind now then I was back then
Lost in some ole maze
Some years have passed me by
All I want is to go get high
I'll get it together some other day

In my dreams I dwell
'Coz all my dreams are swell

Get up get out and do somethin'
Don't let the days of your life pass you by, you got to
Get up get out and do somethin'
How will you make it if you never even try? Come on and
Get up get out and do somethin'
Can't spend your whole life trying to get high, you got to
Get up get out and do somethin'
'Coz you and I got to do for you and I

Get up get out and do somethin'
How will you make it if you never even try?
Get up get out and do somethin'
'Coz you and I got to do for you and I

In my dreams I dwell
'Coz all my dreams are swell
And you would too, If you could see them
That's when I know I gotta go get up get out

Heaven's at my feet
Gotta living dwell down on Easy Street
I'm the latest craze
It's just a dream I had
Last night in my bubble bath
Next to my wishing well

Get up get out and do somethin'
Your whole life, hey hey
Get up get out and do somethin'
How will you make it if you never even try? Baby
Get up get out and do somethin'
Can't spend your whole life trying to get high, come on and
Get up get out and do somethin'
'Coz you and I got to do for you and I

Get up get out and do somethin'
Get up get out and do somethin'
Get up get out and do somethin'
