Son, she said

Have I got a little story for you

What you thought was your daddy

Was nothin' but a...

While you were sittin' home alone at age thirteen

Your real daddy was dyin'

Sorry you didn't see him

But I'm glad that we talked

Oh I, o-oh I'm still alive

Hey, hey I, o-oh I'm still alive

Hey I, o-oh I'm still alive

Hey, oh

While she walks slowly

Across a young man's room

She said, "I'm ready for you"

I can't remember anything

To this very day

'Cept the look, the look

Oh, you know where

Now I can't see, I just stare

I, I'm still alive

Yeah, yeah, I, o-oh I'm still alive

Yeah, yeah, I, o-oh I'm still alive

Yeah, yeah, I, o-oh I'm still alive, yeah

♪ ♪ ♪

"Is something wrong?", she said

Of course there is

"You're still alive", she said

Oh, do I deserve to be?

Is that the question?

And if so, if so

Who answers, who answers?

I, o-oh I'm still alive

Yeah, yeah, I, o-oh I'm still alive

Yeah, yeah, I, o-oh I'm still alive

Yeah, yeah, I, mmh I'm still alive

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

♪ ♪ ♪

Wow aha, yeah aha

Ooh wow, come on!

Yeah, aha

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
