I’m Alive Lyrics by Circle Jerks

VI

0

[Verse 1]
Every day's such a test
When this world's such a mess
But I'll try hard to do my best
Won't get bogged down like all the rest

[Verse 2]
Got no hamsters in my head
No monkeys on my back
No chains and shackles to hold me down
I wanna fly, I wanna fly 'cause

[Refrain]
I'm alive
I'm alive

[Verse 3]
The world could be such a better place
Who needs the garbage, it's all a waste
Don't need the drugs, don't need the booze
Use that stuff, you'll only lose

[Verse 4]
Big decision, make it right
It's a battle, win the fight
Everything's gonna be alright
I wanna fly, I wanna fly

[Refrain]
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive

[Bridge]
Screams in rooms, filled with negativity, filled with gloom
All the walking trash, who the heck wants to live like that?
Not me, I'm no screwed up zombie, not of the living dead
I wanna think, have a clear head

[Verse 5]
Places to go, people to meet
Can't do things with your head in the sheets
Tearing down all the walls
Got the world by the balls

[Verse 2]
Got no hamsters in my head
No monkeys on my back
No chains and shackles to hold me down
I wanna laugh, I wanna cry

[Refrain]
I'm alive
I'm alive
