Survive
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.
I play the stereo loud
When I'm away from the maddening crowd
Smokin', jokin', clowns we all are
Sometimes I kinda get real ill
When I receive my monthly telephone bill
But you say it and I'll pay it
'Cause it just helps me to
Survive, stay alive
Till I see you again
Survive, stay alive
Can't say where it ends
Clouds lift and there are mountains below
Been a while since I've seen any snow
Chillin' so thrillin' so good to be back
Feels nice to be home for a while
Let's sip champagne till we break into smiles
We'll go dancin', romancin' 'cause you're the reason I
Survived, stayed alive
Through the thick and the thin
Survived, stayed alive
When will it all end
But my bags ain't unpacked
'Cause I've got to go back and play
But I know we'll both
Survive, stay alive
Through the thick and the thin
Survive, stay alive
Till it all ends
I will
Survive, stay alive
When will it all end
Survive, stay alive
Till I see you, again
