lyrics
I could take you all apart, my little one,
Or leave you altogether as you are now.
You better get wise.
But you’re not really that smart, my little one.
You can’t pull yourself together if you don't know how.
You better get wise.
You better get wise.
You keep taking chances not worth taking.
Now you've got one more that is.
C H O R U S
Better get wise, get wise, get wise, get wise.
Better get wise, get wise, get wise.
Better get wise, get wise, between your eyes.
Better get wise before your eyes.
Before the whole world dies.
You can take things all apart, my little world.
But putting them together is more profound.
You better get wise.
And it's not too late to start, my little world.
But it’s later than you think if you don’t come around.
You better get wise.
You‘re gonna get wise.
If you want to make it to the future,
Learn some lessons from the past.
Better get wise, get wise, get wise, get wise
It’ll just come as no surprise.
Face the truth and stop believing lies.
Better get wise, get wise,
Gonna get wise, get wise.
CHORUS
CHORUS
Gonna get wise, get wise, get wise, get wise.
Gonna get wise, get wise, get wise.
Gonna get wise, get wise, between your eyes.
Gonna get wise before your eyes.
Better get wise, get wise, get wise.
Better get wise, get wise.
Are you gonna get wise, get wise, get wise,
Before the whole world dies?
Or leave you altogether as you are now.
You better get wise.
But you’re not really that smart, my little one.
You can’t pull yourself together if you don't know how.
You better get wise.
You better get wise.
You keep taking chances not worth taking.
Now you've got one more that is.
C H O R U S
Better get wise, get wise, get wise, get wise.
Better get wise, get wise, get wise.
Better get wise, get wise, between your eyes.
Better get wise before your eyes.
Before the whole world dies.
You can take things all apart, my little world.
But putting them together is more profound.
You better get wise.
And it's not too late to start, my little world.
But it’s later than you think if you don’t come around.
You better get wise.
You‘re gonna get wise.
If you want to make it to the future,
Learn some lessons from the past.
Better get wise, get wise, get wise, get wise
It’ll just come as no surprise.
Face the truth and stop believing lies.
Better get wise, get wise,
Gonna get wise, get wise.

Better get wise, get wise.
Are you gonna get wise, get wise, get wise,
Before the whole world dies?
