12. Hey, Get Up!
(Heikkilä)

This should have been a song for a woman to sing, but I didn't want to disturb Tarja. Tim is dead! --Jore

I find this to be a very interesting melody - reminds me of The Incredible String Band in some parts and early 1970s electric piano soul music in other parts. I would have preferred some backing vocals at the 'Get Up' parts - but Jore couldn't be bothered 'Getting Up' and going down to the studio again. --Davy

hey, get up!
it's almost noon and the kids
have gone to the zoo with Red

hey you, get up!
The beer is out and the friz
is empty and Tim is dead

Come on honey now...
let's have some breakfast
let's boil those eggs we have and
then we could have tea
and later maybe walk to the sea.

Oh, would you make some
blueberry tea
for me?

I know you want to but you can't
just to relax all day

Yes, you, get up
Let's put Tim's corp to a bag
and then carry him away.

Okey,
that good old Tim was a nice old frog but
now he's gone.

you know, honey,
the kids will probably shed some tears but
the life goes on.
