This story is all about Mara and her 'Wake Up' call.
Disclaimer: I don't own Mara, Wake Up, or Hilary Duff (or Bella)
There's people talking
They talk about me
They know my name
They think they know everything
But they don't know anything
About me
People talk about me as if they know me. They all know my name from school rep. posters and honor rolls and other things like that. That's not all I can be. They don't know anything about me.
Give me a dance floor
Give me a dj
Play me a record
Forget what they say
Cause I need to go
Need to getaway tonight
Tonight the house is going out for supper. I lied to them and said I would stay home and study for a test we have tomorrow. The truth is my cousin is in town and she is the only one who knows what I can really do. I can do things other than study! I know how to dance, sing, act… and more! But I'm afraid they'll treat me with less respect than usual. Tonight me and my cousin, Bella, are REALLY going to a cool teen club.
I put my makeup on a Saturday night
I try and make it happen
Try to make it all right
I know I make mistakes
I'm living life day to day
It's never really easy but it's ok
I sneaked (sneaked is a word, 'snook' is not) Bella in through the window even though everyone was already gone. I take out a make-up kit I hide under my bed. Bella and I put some on. The only thing that's keeping me from backing out is her. This may be a mistake, but I have to live my life. This won't be easy but I'll be okay.
Wake Up Wake Up
On a Saturday night
Could be New York
Maybe Hollywood and Vine
London, Paris maybe Tokyo
There's something going on anywhere I go
Tonight
Tonight
Yeah, tonight
Tonight! Tonight is when Bella and I go all around town. We are going to a club and a few stores while she helps me change up my wardrobe. Everywhere we go there is something going on. Whether a party or a huge sale, there's something everywhere! Why do I never do this?
The cities restless
It's all around me
People in motion
Sick of all the same routines
And they need to go
They need to get away
Tonight
This place is so alive! People are basically everywhere! I'm SO sick of my normal routines, and I'm guessing so are other people! Some other people seem to have the same problem as me.

It's never really easy but it's ok
This may or may not have been a mistake. Even if it is, I'm okay with that! I don't care if I get in trouble or anything! I am having too much fun to care right now! I'm just living my life!
Wake Up Wake Up
On a Saturday night
Could be New York
Maybe Hollywood and Vine
London, Paris maybe Tokyo
There's something going on anywhere I go
Tonight
Tonight
Yeah, tonight
It's the middle of the night and I'm wide awake! Who knew going out to clubs would be this fun? Probably everyone but me… but that doesn't matter anymore to me.
People all around you
Everywhere that you go
People all around you
They don't really know you
Everybody watching like it's some kind of show
Everybody's watching
They don't really know you now
(They don't really know you)
(They don't really know you)
And forever
Again, people don't know me. And now some people do. A bunch of guys keep looking over at me and Bella. They don't know me though. They never will. Maybe my life will be secret…forever.
Wake Up Wake Up
(Wake Up Wake Up)
Wake Up Wake Up
(Wake Up Wake Up)
This is a total wake up call to me! I never realized I could have this much fun!
Wake Up Wake Up
On a Saturday night
Could be New York
Maybe Hollywood and Vine
London, Paris maybe Tokyo
There's something going on anywhere I go
Wake Up Wake Up

I go
Tonight
Tonight
Yeah, tonight
