Karel Schuurman - Stand Up You Fool Lyrics

Stand up you fool I said to myself
It ain't cool to hide in your shell
Nothing 's coming on your way
That shows you what life is
While dying bit by bit every day
Without knowing what you miss
So don't wait go out to life
Before it's too late and the end will arrive
Stand up stand up let the light come in
Only your illusions to drop and a new life begins
Yes there's a lot to see
When you keep your inner look
But if there's only me and me and me
Life remains a closed book
No one profits from your insights
No one shows you your lies
But if you go outside
It's there where the old man should die
So don't wait go out to life
Before it's too late and the end will arrive
Stand up stand up let the light come in
Only your illusions to drop and a new life begins
So don't wait go out to life
Before it's too late and the end will arrive
Stand up stand up let the light come in
Only your illusions to drop and a new life begins
Someone showed you the way many years ago
And look where you are today still a long way to go
So stand up you fool I said to myself
It ain't cool to hide in your shell
