I Wanna Live Lyrics by Iggy Pop

Naughty Little Doggie

1996

I see my future shuffling
A shakey step at a time
I got no choice but careful
Thank God I've done my crime
The tools I see on tv
Can't stand it when they fake
A prick's a prick at any age
Why give one a break?

I wanna live
A little bit longer
I wanna live
A little bit longer
I wanna live
A little bit longer
I wanna live live live live live

The soul is in the eyeball
For anyone to see
I'm better than a Pepsi
I'm cooler than MTV
I'm hotter than California
I'm cheaper than a gram
I'm deeper than the shit I'm in
An' I don't really give a damn

I wanna live
A little bit longer
I wanna live
A little bit longer now
I wanna live
A little bit longer
I wanna live live live live live

Step up it's fight time
Kick scratch and bite time
Ain't talking about no more fun
But that don't bother my bad ass none

I wanna live
A little bit longer now
I wanna live
A little bit longer
I want to live live live live live
A little bit longer now
I wanna live live live live live
Just a little bit longer
I wanna live live live live live
Just a little bit longer
I wanna live live live live live
Just a little bit longer
