1. A song by Green Day which is influenced by Billie Joe Armstrong growing up without his father. His father died on 10 September 1982, and Billie Joe locked himself in the cupboard when he heard the news and said to his mum "Wake Me Up When September Ends". That is the origin of the title.

2. The only song that has ever made me cry.
1.Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
Wake me up when September ends
Like my fathers come to pass
Seven years has gone so fast
Wake me up when September ends
Here comes the rain again
Falling from the stars
Drenched in my pain again
Becoming who we are
As my memory rests
But never forgets what I lost
Wake me up when September ends
Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
Wake me up when September ends
Ring out the bells again
Like we did when spring began
Wake me up when September ends
Here comes the rain again
Falling from the stars
Drenched in my pain again
Becoming who we are
As my memory rests
But never forgets what I lost
Wake me up when September ends
Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
Wake me up when September ends
Like my father's come to pass
Twenty years has gone so fast
Wake me up when September ends
Wake me up when September ends
Wake me up when September ends

A song by Green Day about not wanting the summer to end and having to deal with going back to our normal lives, time going by too fast, etc. Things that are on your mind before school starts. Basically the only good song on Green Day's new CD because everyone can relate to it and you can actually understand what Billie Joe is saying which is hard to do on most Green Day songs.
Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
Wake me up when September ends

Like my fathers come to pass
Seven years has gone so fast
Wake me up when September ends

Here comes the rain again
Falling from the stars
Drenched in my pain again
Becoming who we are

As my memory rests
But never forgets what I lost
Wake me up when September ends

When you wake up still drunk from the night before.
I must've been really drunk last night because I woke up Irish this morning.

Mary was tired of her husband waking up Irish so she shot him.

Don't get too drunk tonight, no one wants to wake up Irish.

2 words, WAKE UP. And if you're in school, GET WORKING. And if you're like me, YEET ON!:

This word means when an epic lad like Pineapple motivates his fellow friends to do what their supposed to be doing.

It could also mean, when kisser of sisters cat, is having a bad day. And then all of the sudden the most respectable man, aka Pineapple says some random crap.
Kisser of the cats having a bad day

Pineapple: 2 words, WAKE UP. And if you're in school, GET WORKING. And if you're like me, YEET ON!

Kisser of the cats: Thanks Pineapple, you really motivated me to get my stuff done.

Penguin: Why?

Wake-keeping involves family and friends keeping watch over the body of the dead person, usually in the home of the deceased.

While this is grammatically correct ("wake" being the correct way to refer to this), it is mostly used as a slang world wide.
My mother's wake-keeping service is set on the 4th of this month.
