Oxygen To The Brain

[Intro]
Open up, open up, open your eyes
It's time, it's time, it's time to rise
Okay, let's take it slow
You ain't got no place to go

[Verse 1]
I cried a million tears
I wasted a lot of years
Life was so dead (so dead)
Life was so dead (so dead)

[Chorus]
Oxygen, oxygen right to the brain
Skip the vice versus, get to the refrain
Let yourself go, don't carry that weight
Never destroy when you can create

[Post-Chorus]
Ready steady, California
I'm filling up my lungs again
And breathing light

[Verse 2]
How could I have got so low
I'm embarassed to tell you so
I laid around this whole place
I hardly ever washed my face

[Chorus]
Oxygen, oxygen right to the brain
Skip the vice versus, get to the refrain
Let yourself go, don't carry that weight
Never destroy when you can create

[Post-Chorus]
Ready steady, California
I'm filling up my lungs again
And breathing light

[Bridge]
Now it don't matter what your age is
Don't you know it's just a state of mind
Let's get the jump on it before it's too late
Friendly reminder, friendly reminder

[Verse 3]
So take a lesson from one who knows
Just where being lazy goes
There's a time to live
A reason to live, to live, to live

[Chorus]
Oxygen, oxygen right to the brain
Skip the vice versus, get to the refrain
Let yourself go, don't carry that weight
Never destroy when you can create

[Post-Chorus]
Ready steady, California
I'm filling up my lungs again
And breathing light

[Outro]
Open up, open up, open your eyes
It's time, it's time, it's time to rise
Okay, let's take it slow
You ain't got no place to go
