To me music is a big part of my life. I can associate a song to every moment, event,
experience, emotion of my life. So, this post I have a rather peculiar question for you.

What would be YOUR ‘theme’ song for waking up each day?

Please post both the song title and lyrics bellow. ^_^

"Sleeping In"
-The Postal Service

Last week I had the strangest dream
Where everything was exactly how it seemed
Where there was never any mystery of who shot John F. Kennedy
It was just a man with something to prove
Slightly bored and severely confused
He steadied his rifle with his target in the center
And became famous on that day in November

Don't wake me I plan on sleeping
Don't wake me I plan on sleeping in
Don't wake me I plan on sleeping
Don't wake me I plan on sleeping in

Again last night I had that strange dream
Where everything was exactly how it seemed
Where concerns about the world getting warmer
The people thought they were just being rewarded
For treating others as they'd like to be treated
For obeying stop signs and curing diseases
For mailing letters with the address of the sender
Now we can swim any day in November

Don't wake me I plan on sleeping
(now we can swim any day in November)
Don't wake me I plan on sleeping in
Don't wake me I plan on sleeping
Don't wake me I plan on sleeping in

[x3]
Don't wake me I plan on sleeping in
Don't wake me I plan on sleeping
OOo oOo oOo

[x2]
Don't wake me I plan on sleeping in
Don't wake me I plan on sleeping
OOo oOo oOo
(Don't wake me I plan on sleeping in
Don't wake me I plan on sleeping)

Don't wake me I plan on sleeping in
Don't wake me I plan on sleeping

Ditto.
Music is my therapy. (It's cheaper than a psychiatrist.lol)
anywho, the first song that comes to my mind for my "waking up" theme song would have to be:

"Sleep"

Riley Smith

Looking straight at the light,
never used to be that bright last night.
But, it's a new day with fuzz in my eyes,
the alarm still ringing when i open the blinds and,
How do these people do it?
There're like ,driving around like there's nothing to it.
And I imagine it's the medication your honor, well,probably the coffee.
But there's one thing for certain in life, and that's the day I'm gonna eat cereal, and ooh today i'm gonna eat cereal.
I mean come on let's get our priorites straight.
And before you know it, i'm out the door late, just trying to catch some rat or some race or something,
i'm not quiet sure what it is, so for now well, i just best keep running.
And by 9 a.m. my brain and my body, they finally decide to meet, and we came to the same conclusions yesterday, that you know what, i never get enough sleep.

Sleep, no I never get enough. Always wakin' up tired.
Sleep, no I never get enough, if I don't show up I might get fired.
Sleep, no I never get enough. Always wakin up tried.
Sleep, no I never get enough, if I don't show up I might get fired.


Well, they call it commuting but I think they should call it inconvenience
Cause why is it every time i get well, i'm stuck behind a truck just tryin'ta turn left, just tryin'ta to turn left, while you're tryin' to turn left and *sigh*
why don't you park that crazy little cue-van, or hop in, i'll like drop you off or something.
cause at this rate we'll both be late and i'd rather be late than both be sittin' here doing nothing,
*sigh*
But by 9 a.m. by brain and my body, well they meet, and we came to the same conclusions yesterday, that you know what, i never get enough sleep


Sleep, no I never get enough. Always wakin' up tired.
Sleep, no I never get enough, if I don't show up I might get fired.
Sleep, no I never get enough. Always wakin' up tried.
Sleep, no I never get enough, if I don't show up I might get fired


Sleep, go on and sleep some more. Sleep, go on and sleep, go on and sleep, go on and sleep some more. Sleeeeep....


Sleep, no I never get enough. Always wakin' up tired.
Sleep, no I never get enough, if I don't show up I might get fired.
Sleep, no I never get enough. Always wakin' up tried.
Sleep, no I never get enough, if I don't show up I might get fired


if i don't show up i might get 'ired, Ooh I might get fired.

"A Dream Is A Wish Your Heart Makes"
A dream is a wish your heart makes
When you're fast asleep
In dreams you will lose your heartaches
Whatever you wish for, you keep

Have faith in your dreams and someday
Your rainbows will come smiling through
No matter how your heart is grieving
If you keep on believing
the dream that you wish will come true

A dream is a wish your heart makes
When you're feeling small
Alone in the night you whisper
Thinking no one can hear you at all

You wake with the morning sunlight
To find fortune that is smiling on you
Don't let your heart be filled with sorrow
For all you know, tomorrow
The dream that you wish will come true

A dream is a wish your heart makes...

You wake with the morning sunlight
To find fortune that is smiling on you
Don't let your heart be filled with sorrow
For all you know, tomorrow
The dream that you wish will come true

No matter how your heart is grieving
If you keep on believing
The dream that you wish will come true

Music-My Anti-Drug. Yeah, in agreement to what you said Zane, music is my life. It is literally apart of my soul and is something, I plan on majoring in while in college. I have recorded a CD, but at the moment, I've been to shy and scared to release it. My music is different and I hate criticism so maybe in a year or two when I am sound with my new creations.

High Of 75 - Relient K
We were talking together
I said, "what's up with this weather?"
Don't know whether or not
How sad I just got
'Cause on my own volition.
Or if I'm just missing the sun

And tomorrow, I know,
Will be rainy at best.
And the forecast, I know,
Is that I'll be depressed.
But I'll wait outside
Hoping that I'll catch sight of the sun.

Because on and off,
The clouds have fought
For control over the sky
And lately the weather
Has been so Bi-polar
And consequently so have I

And now I'm sunny with a High
of 75
Since you took my heavy heart
And made it light
And it's funny how you find
You enjoy your life
When you're happy to be alive

And the temperature is freezing
And then, after dark,
There's a cold frost sweeping
In over my heart
And we might break up
If I don't wake up to the sun

Because on and off,
The clouds have fought
For control over the sky
And lately the weather
Has been so Bi-polar
And consequently so have I

And now I'm sunny with a High
of 75
Since you took my heavy heart
And made it light
And it's funny how you find
You enjoy your life
When you're happy to be alive

Sunny with a High
of 75
Since you took my heavy heart
And made it light (made it light)
And it's funny how you find
You enjoy your life
When you're happy to be... alive

Well, I wouldn't really say I have one particular 'waking up song'. But if I had to choose, I would say my favorite song to wake up to at the moment is Hey Eugene! by Pink Martini.

Hey Eugene,o you remember me?
I'm that chick you danced with
Two times through the Rufus album
Friday night at that party on Avenue A
When your skinhead friend passed out for several hours
On the bathroom floor
And you told me you weren't that drunk
And that I was your favorite salsa dancer
You had ever come across in New York City.

Eugene, Eugene, Eugene,
I said hello, Eugene
Are you there, Eugene?

Hey Eugene, then we kissed
Once we lugged your friend into the elevator
And went to write my number on a soggy paper towel
And the car went down
And when we were finished making out
We noticed that your skinhead friend was...gone.
Long gone.
And you looked into my bloodshot eyes and said
"Is it too soon if I call you Sunday?"

Eugene, Eugene, Eugene
I said hello, Eugene
Are you there, Eugene?

I said hello, Eugene, Eugene, Eugene
I said hello, Eugene
Are you there, Eugene?
Does any of this ring a bell...
Eugene?


(Funnyness- the song was based on something that actually happened to the lead singer. I feel sorry for Eugene. Great song, though.

@ Zane: I Love that song!!!

Three o'clock
Tripping down the sidewalk
Looking like a fool with a pocket full of questions
I was living in the worry
Moving in a hurry
In the wrong direction
But then
Suddenly it hit me
Doesn't really matter 'cause I got you with me
I think I don't have to be so
Down, down, down, down, down

I should be happy
I should be happy
I should be living up these days
Just like I know who runs this place
Now that you found me
I should be happy

Three thirty
Got a little dirty
Fear stuck its foot out and I tripped on the same lie
That voice screaming into my head
Pushing me to play dead
Saying "don't you even try"
But how can I claime to be free
When I carry more chains the world when they see me?
I don't wanna be the fool who stays
Down, down, down, down down

I should be happy
I should be happy
I should be living up these days
Just like I know who runs this place
Now that you found me
I should be happy

Now I'm not talking 'bout a smile so fake
While the world takes pictures 24/7
I just want my faith to be a little more real
What you see is what you get
What you see is how I feel

I should be happy
I should be happy
I should be living up these days
Just like I know who runs this place
Now that you found me
I should be happy


|EDIT|I changed my song!

Music is basically what keeps me sane besides my friends. I love it <3

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "waking up song," but the song that I love waking up to is Let It Roll by All Time Low

The time on the clock reads half past four;
I'm wide awake and thinking,
With my pillow on the floor,
That maybe I'm just wasting my time dreaming,
In a harsh reality,
I don't want to wake up to find out I've been deceived...

Let it roll.
Our time is fleeting so we take control,
From California to my home sweet home.
Our days repeating like it's all we know.
It's all we know.

Out here the hills roll on for miles,
And the sun is like my own sense of direction,
I'm always drawn to each horizon,
When it's rising,
When it sets,
But all I can think about is s**,
and playing one more game of six-cup in the back yard at "The Wedge,"
I know I'll never die alone because of all of you...

Let it roll.
Our time is fleeting so we take control,
From California to my home sweet home.
Our days repeating like it's all we know.
It's all we know.

Take, take a breath,
We've got all the time in the world,
To get a grip on the fact that we don't last,
But right now I want to watch the tide roll in,
With my best friends.

Let it roll.
Our time is fleeting so we take control,
From California.

Let it roll.
Our time is fleeting so we take control,
From California to my home sweet home.

Let it roll.
It's all we know.
It's all we know.
