Alice Cooper - The Awakening Lyrics






I wake up in the basement I'm so hungry I'm dry
I must be here sleepwalking mustn't I
Getting up from my easy chair looking for my wife
Following a trial of crimson spots that lead into the night
Suddenly I realize I see it all through real eyes
These crimson spots are dripping from my hand
And oh it makes me feel like a man

    After DA DA the coop played it way to safe , the Dick Wagner days where never to be topped .

    p.... ....

    True words, man. I really like some of his post-Dada albums, but artistically they couldn't touch the 69-83 era material

  18. p.... ....

    This album helped my slip into the madness that my life would become. In 79, I put on his make up, dressed in black and hung myself repeatedly in a spook alley with Years Ago, Steven and The Awakening blaring on repeat from a stereo. While blood ran from my partially open mouth and everyone screaming as they witnessed the show, I realized why Alice was the master of shock. I suffered 2 broke ribs from the make shift rigging and could barely breath the next day but loved every minute of the pain.

    p.... ....

    You what !??

    p.... ....

    We've all got to start somewhere. I've since refined my Macabre nature.

    p.... ....

    pandamonium2112 Alice Cooper plays a character dude. His real name is Vincent and he plays golf.

    p.... ....

    Right. We all play characters. Sometimes I act like a normal person with cute creative hobbies and well rounded social skills. But hey, we cant hide all the time..

    p.... ....

    Thank goodness you survived :)

  19. J.... M....

    Alice is a bad ass I grew up with him. He is awesome

  20. t.... g....

    God I've always loved this song! I remember thinking how scary this was because of the intense piano & tinkling noises. Ha ha turns out Alice Cooper was just the consummate musician showman storyteller entertainer

  21. D.... W....

    So much of his music is powerful social commentary... it's not just freaky weird, it serves a purpose.

  22. C.... ....

    Awesome poetry

  23. b.... t....

    I wonder how many have been killed or killed to this song

  24. s.... b....

    super clever love the coop

  25. D.... W....

    don't ya just hate it when that happens?

  26. D.... ....

    He killed her.

  27. m.... ....

    The piano lick of complete insanity
