Survival Lyrics by Ghost Mice

Andrew Jackson Jihad & Ghost Mice

0

[Originally by Andrew Jackson Jihad]

I broke my promise on a very sharp rock
And I was possessed by something quite unfriendly
And I was haunted by a demon in my sleep
And that's how I learned how to survive
I gave a beer to a bum that was drinking
And I gave some sause to my bestest friends for cooking
And I gave water to all I thought were thirsty
And that's how I learned how to survive
I gave some money to my bank for safe keeping
And I gave some money to my land lord, he was needing it
And I gave attention to the TV that was bleeding
And that's how I learned how to survive
And "I don't care if Monday's blue
Tuesday's grey and Wednesday's too
Thursday I don't care about you
It's Friday I'm in love."
We just ripped off a song by the cure
But it's not the first band that we ripped off for sure
I fed false information to the audience
And that's how I learned how to survive
I give a thank you to my father for leaving me
And I give a finger to my stepfather for beating me
And I give props to myself for achieving
Gosh dang I'm glad that I survived
I just handed you a giant load of gibberish
And I gave love to a lover quite deserving of it
And I give thanks to all of you for listening to the story
Of how we all learned how to survive
