Good To Be Alive — текст песни (Snakepit)

(Slash/Gilby Clarke/Eric Dover)

You told me you`re an orphan
the same old standard line
Then when we moved in together
All you did was moan and cry
Talkin` like you`d make it
On life`s big movie screen
I had to say I loved you
Just to try and keep the peace

Hustler
What are you doin` with your time
I`m slow to catch on
But I think you wasted mine

You`re running low tonight
Jack up and get it right
You know you`re going down
Ain`t it good to be alive

I couldn`t make excuses about
everything you said
You wanna show your bruises
Let`s throw a party for the band
Now here they come a dancin`
Like the powder to your nose
Why don`t you cut your head off
Spite your face let`s do the show

Hustler
What are you doin` with your time
I`m slow catchin` on
But I think you wasted mine
Hustler

You`re running low tonight
The station`s right close by
Pack up your car and drive
Ain`t it good to be alive

Tearing of the membrane
Of the first new thing in years
Found a nagging consolation
In a glass of Everclear
And the ugly truth has raped you
They`re saying you`re a lousy lay
But isn`t everything that way

Ain`t it good to be alive
So good to be alive
