Rise Up

[Verse 1]
Dog at the window still
Looks all day, never gets her fill
'Cause a glance means a chance to break the birds out congregating
I have seen a look like that
You licked your chops from where you sat
Make your kill for a thrill and you don't mind waiting

[Chorus]
Rise up your dead
There's life in the old girl yet
Rise up your dead

[Verse 2]
When it bums you out
All the hunters sprung to pounce
And at best it's a mess like a nest infested
You remember there's more than this
There always was and always is
Tend the artist in your charges, you are full invested

[Chorus]
Rise up your dead
There's life in the old girl yet
Rise up your dead

[Bridge]
And if you need to, read your mindless mag
Call me up for tickets, we'll go see Sugarland
And it gets better even when it's been a drag
Just move to the madness
You move your body to the band and rise up

[Interlude]
Rise up your dead
Rise up your dead
Rise up your dead
Rise up your dead (Move your body)
Rise up your dead (Move your body to the band)
Rise up your dead (Oh, come on)

[Verse 3]
The summers' coming
The rain's been heavy and the river's running
Loose the cuff, it's been tough, but it's fast improving
We got sticks to start our piles
We got stories that lead to smiles
We gotta twirl with this world, I can feel it moving

[Chorus]
Rise up your dead
There's life in the old girl yet
Rise up your dead
Rise up your dead
There's life in the old girl yet
Rise up your dead (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
