Lyrics
Dead And Alive
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Caretakers of the streets
Virgins with tainted saviours
Hippies hustling chump change
Don't know the days from the night
[Chorus:]
Dead and alive ain't breathing I'm
Dead and alive feeling so damn
Dead and alive
Being a servant by day
Smiling and stroking my way
I get my lovin' outta magazines
But keep your hands offa me
[Chorus]
Murder takes a city's night
Feeding it's wanton flame
Come excite the streets with me
But don'tcha ask my name
[Chorus]
