U2 - Stand Up Comedy lyrics

[U2 - Stand Up Comedy lyrics]

I got to stand up and take a step
You and I have been asleep for hours
I got to stand up the wire is stretched in
Between our two towers
Stand up in this dizzy world
Where a lovesick eye can steal the view
I'm gonna fall down if I can't stand up
For your love

Stand up, this is comedy
The DNA lotto may have left you smart
But can I stand up to beauty
Dictator of the heart
I can stand up for hope, faith, love
But while I'm getting over certainty
Stop helping God across the road
Like a little old lady

Whooo hooo hoo whooo hooo hoo
Out from under your beds c'mon ye people
Stand up for your love

I gotta stand up to ego
But my ego's not really the enemy
It's like a small child crossing
An eight lane highway
On a voyage of discovery

Stand up to rock stars
Napoleon is in high heels
Josephine, be careful of small
Men with big ideas

Whooo hooo hoo whooo hooo hoo
Out from under your beds c'mon ye people
Stand up for your love

God is love
And love is evolution's very best day

Soul rockin' people moving on
Soul rockin' people on and on
C'mon ye people we're made of stars
C'mon ye people
Stand up then sit down for your love
