wakey wakey
Time to rise
Wakey wakey is a cheerful, informal way to rouse someone from sleep, often used with children or said playfully to adults: Wakey wakey, rise and shine!
The rhyming reduplication gives it a singsong quality.
It can also nudge someone to pay attention or face reality: Wakey wakey—the deadline is tomorrow.
