Waking Up Is Hard to Do

(Tune: Breaking Up is Hard to Do)

 

A                             F#m        D      E

Do do alarm hit the snooze alarm

Hit the snooze alarm hit the snooze alarm

Hit the snooze alarm hit the snooze alarm

                     A     E  A

Wakin' up is hard to do

 

Don't make me get out of bed today

If there's no quiz it's gonna be OK

A      Dbm               F#m

If he gives one, I'm gonna be blue

            B7                            E

Cause wakin' up is hard to do

 

Remember when we studied all night

We crashed at five and and thought we'd be alright

A little catnap will get me through

           B7             E           A

And wakin' up is hard to do

 

                                 Am D Am      D

They say that wakin' up is hard to do

G              

Well now I know, I know that it's true

Dm    C          Dm          C

Don't say I'm missed it again

F#m                                            E

Instead of waking up I wish that I was laying down again

 

I beg of you let me take the test

I slept right through it in my little nest/but I got more rest

Come on teacher, let me take it at two

Cause wakin' up is hard to do

 

They say that wakin' up is hard to do

Well now I know, I know that it's true

Don't say I'm dozing it again

Instead of waking up I wish that I was laying down again

 

I can't believe I did it again

I missed another class that starts before ten

Why early classes, I have no clue

Cause wakin' up is hard to do

 

Hit the snooze alarm

Hit the snooze alarm hit the snooze alarm

Hit the snooze alarm hit the snooze alarm

Wakin' up is hard to do
