Naive Thieves combined Wake Up Now and Hawaii (I Don’t Want To Go) when they premiered both songs on Audiotree Live. When they later released their album Vámonos, the two songs were separated and Hawaii (I Don’t Want To Go) gained a longer title and a different intro.
[Riff: Wake Up Now]
[Verse 1]
You're wasting your time still writing letters overseas
And I just don't understand how you don't see there ain't a thing between us anymore
Your cryptic words
Oh you balanced bones in lieu of prose every time
And I'm fed up
I didn't want to spell it out
[Chorus]
But you need to wake up now because you must be dreaming
This won't work itself out; I don't care what you believe in
And I don't think (I don't think), oh, about you at all
So you need (so you need) to get a move on, get a move on
Yeah
[Verse 2]
You left our ghost hung on the wall
Haunting this whole bar, even the bathroom stall
You really thought dramatic acts like that would be something that just might win me back?
Well, it's such a shame
That my tender heart has to ignore your martyred intent
For peace of mind
And now there's nothing left to mend
[Chorus]
Oh, wake up now because you must be dreaming
Oh, this won't work itself out; I don't care what you believe in
And I don't think (I don't think), oh, about you at all
So you need (so you need) to get a move on, get a move on
Yeah
[Riff]
[Instrumental Segue]
[Riff: Hawaii (I Don't Want To Go)]
[Verse 1]
We shared a tall can in my car
And you knew I’d try to kiss you
Later on, that night
After weeks of hesitating
[Pre-Chorus 1]
We didn't need to fall in love
And I thought your friendship was enough
Well all of that changed in one night
Who knew it could be so right and now I'm scared to leave it, baby
[Chorus]
I don't want to go to Hawaii
Though the coast might be so inviting
I don't want to go to Hawaii without you
[Riff]
[Verse 2]
Well I spent a week away and still
Every thought I had was of you
Humming, "What took so long
Sinking into this point of view?"
[Pre-Chorus 2]
We were afraid to fall in love
And you said that you had given up
Well, all of that changed in one night
Who knew it could be so right and now I'm scared to leave it, baby
[Chorus]
I don't want to go to Hawaii
Though the coast might be so inviting
I don't want to go to Hawaii without you
[Outro]
(I don't want to go to Hawaii, laaa)
But I don't want to go to Hawaii, no no no no, no
(I don't want to go to Hawaii without you)
[Riff]
