Keep Yourself Alive

Keep yourself alive

Keep yourself alive

Keep yourself alive



I was told a million times

Of all the troubles in my way

How I had to keep on trying

Little better ev'ry day

But if I crossed a million rivers

And I rode a million miles

Then I'd still be where I started

Bread and butter for a smile

Well I sold a million mirrors

In a shop in Alley Way

But I never saw my face

In any window any day

Well they say your folks are telling you

To be a super star

But I tell you just be satisfied

To stay right where you are



Keep yourself alive keep yourself alive

All you people keep yourself alive



Well I've loved a million women

In a belladonic haze

And I ate a million dinners



Brought to me on silver trays

Give me ev'rything I need

To feed my body and my soul

And I'll grow a little bigger

Maybe that can be my goal

I was told a million times

Of all the people in my way

How I had to keep on trying

And get better ev'ry day

But if I crossed a million rivers

And I rode a million miles

Then I'd still be where I started

Still be where I started



Keep yourself alive keep yourself alive

All you people keep yourself alive



Keep yourself alive

Keep yourself alive

All you people keep you

rself alive

Do you think you're better ev'ry day

No I just think I'm two steps nearer to my grave

Keep yourself alive

Keep yourself alive mm

All you people keep yourself alive

Keep yourself alive

Keep yourself alive

Keep yourself alive

All you people keep yourself alive

Keep yourself alive

Keep yourself alive

It'll take you all your time and a money

To keep me satisfied

Keep yourself alive

Keep yourself alive

All you people keep yourself alive

Take you all your time and money honey

You will survive



Keep you satisfied

Keep you satisfied
