[Verse 1]
Oh, can you take care of her?
Oh, maybe you can spare her
Several moments of your consideration
Leading up to the final destination
Oh, the earth is calling out
I wanna learn what it's all about, but
Everything I read's global warming, going green
I don't know what all this means
But it seems to be saying

[Chorus]
Wake up, America
We're all in this together
It's our home, so let's take care of it
You know that you want to
You know that you got to
Wake up, America
Tomorrow becomes a new day
And everything you do matters
Yeah, everything you do matters in some way

[Verse 2]
Stand up, I'll try if you will
Wake up, it's not a fire drill
All she needs is a little attention
Can you give her just a little attention?
Oh, it's easy to look away
But it's getting harder day by day
Everything I read's global warming, going green
I don't know what all this means
But it seems to be saying
(C'mon!)

[Chorus]
Wake up, America
We're all in this together
It's our home, so let's take care of it
You know that you want to (Wake up)
You know that you got to (Oh)
Wake up, America
Tomorrow becomes a new day
And everything you do matters
Yeah, everything you do matters in some way

[Bridge]
I know that you don't wanna hear it
Especially comin' from someone so young
But in the backseat, yeah, they wanna hear it (They wanna hear it)
So, c'mon (Turn it up)
C'mon (Turn it up)
So, c'mon (Turn it up)

[Chorus]
Wake up, America (Wake up)
We're all in this together
It's our home, so let's take care of it (It's our home)
You know that you want to (Wake up)
You know that you got to (Oh)
Wake up, America
Tomorrow becomes a new day
And everything you do matters
Yeah, everything you do matters in some way

Miley Cyrus

Miley Ray Cyrus (born Destiny Hope Cyrus, November 23rd 1992) is an American singer, songwriter and actress, as well as the daughter of country singer Billy Ray Cyrus. She was named Destiny Hope Cyrus at birth but was given the nickname “Smiley” because she was always grinning. The name stuck and she legally changed it in 2008.

Her singing career started simultaneously with her role in the Disney Channel television series Hannah Montana, which made her a teen idol. She was featured on the 2006 soundtrack of Hannah Montana. After signing a recording contract with Hollywood Records in 2007, she released Hannah Montana 2: Meet Miley Cyrus. The album served as both the series' soundtrack and Cyrus' debut studio album.

With the 2010 release of Can’t Be Tamed, Cyrus developed a more mature image with a dance-oriented sound. The album caused controversy due to the lyrics and music video of Can’t Be Tamed.
