Wake Up

Wake Up is the twenty-fourth song featured in Total Drama World Tour during African Lying Safari. It is sung by Heather, Sierra, Alejandro, and Duncan, while they are trying to wake up after being accidentally tranquilized by each other during the second challenge.

Lyrics
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

Give me a dance floor Give me a DJ Play me a record Forget what they say

Cause I need to go Need to get away tonight

I put my makeup On a Saturday night I try to 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

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

The city's 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

I put my makeup On a Saturday night I try to 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

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

People all around you Everywhere that you go People all around you They don't really know you

Everybody's 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

Wake up! Wake up! (Wake up, wake up) Wake up! Wake up! (Wake up, wake up)

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! 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

(Wake up, wake up)

Trivia

 * This is the sixteenth song overall that Cody has not sung in.
 * The melody from this song can be heard as Chris introduces Tanzania in the beginning of the episode.
 * This is the third song that Chris gives specific instructions to, the other two being Gypsy Rap and Greek Mix. Chris says that the contestants must sing no matter where the tranquilizer balls hit them, even if it makes it hard for them to sing. In Sierra's case, she was hit in the face, thus she was unable to actually "sing" until the end of the song.
 * At the end of the song, the background is similar to that of the final shot of Before We Die.
 * The background music to Wake Up sounds similar to Paul Simon's You Can Call Me Al. The song is linked to Wake Up as Graceland, the album it appeared on, and was inspired by South African township music. It also has a similar beat and tune to Shakira's song, Waka Waka (This Time For Africa). Coincidentally, Shakira's song was about Africa, and this episode took place in Africa.
 * It is revealed that Ezekiel has acne, as mentioned in Duncan's line, "We teamed up and almost had a Zeke. I could see the zits right on his face. Really! We were that close!"
 * This is the second song to mention that those who do not sing will get kicked out, the first being Come Fly With Us.
 * This is the last song that has no reference to winning the million dollar prize.
 * This is the last non-aftermath song not started by Alejandro.

Goofs

 * Alejandro uses his hands to pull himself to Heather and put his hand above his head, but later reveals that his hand hasn't woken up.
 * When Duncan punches Alejandro in the face, a tooth is seen flying out, yet he is seen with all of his teeth for the rest of the season.
 * Duncan mentions that Ezekiel has zits on his face, but Ezekiel does not appear to have zits.
 * This is also the case when Geoff and Heather were shown with leg hair, which is only seen when viewed from extremely up close.
 * The closed captioning says Sierra sang her line "Oh, my face," thus, causing her to have a singing solo.
 * When Heather sings "I'll find Zeke and win this dumb game," for the second time, her top is longer than normal.
 * The closed captioning says Heather sings "You're a lose duo, that's all!" while she really says "You're a loser duo" and not a "lose duo" as 'lose duo' doesn't make any sense.
 * In the US closed captioning, Duncan sang "We teamed up, and almost had a Zeke." In Australia, the closed captioning says that Duncan sang "We teamed up, and almost had Ezeke." However, the correct lyrics have not yet been confirmed.
 * The closed captioning doesn't add Heather's line "Ah!" when she's done singing her first solo.
