New Town Crier Lyrics by Capital Cities

Kangaroo Court - EP

2012

[Intro]
(One, two, three, ow!)
[Verse 1]
Wake up, wake up
Show me your eyes
You slept through the morning
Now it's time to rise, to rise
Wake up, wake up
Show me your heart
Your life's just a moment
Now it's time to start, to start
[Chorus]
Cross the river, jump the fire
We are walking on a tight-rope wire
Think deeper, climb higher
Even you could be the new town crier
[Verse 2]
Wake up, wake up
Show me your face
You slept through the night
You're gonna miss the race, the race
Wake up, wake up
This is the time
To leave all your worries and excuses behind, behind
[Chorus]
Cross the river, jump the fire
We are walking on a tight-rope wire
Think deeper, climb higher
Even you could be the new town crier, crier
[Outro]
New town crier, crier
Two, three, go
New town crier
New town crier
