survival (just staying alive) by oldrottenhead

[Oldrottenhead]

been struggling to get time to do any new songs of late or even get on hear to listen and comment. besides that my sinuses have been playing up so singing has been difficult too.

anyway a wee song hope it's not too morbid.

man on the corner
finger in the pie
ears to the ground
eyes to the sky
survival
is all he thinks about
just staying alive
no dress rehearsal
it's a one way ride
you only get one go
no extra lives
you make yer choices
and hold on tight
hold on tight
survival
is all he thinks about
just staying alive
