Trouble all around me everywhere |
|
There was a time when I didn't care |
|
Life was a party |
|
That's all we knew |
|
Now I'm so glad |
|
To be here today |
|
Cause not everybody |
|
Can stand up and say |
|
That they're a survivor |
|
Survivor |
|
Survivor |
|
You've got to choose |
|
If you wanna be a survivor |
|
Survivor |
|
Survivor |
|
Oh, yeah, you've got to choose |
|
Some learn |
|
Some don't |
|
Some live |
|
You know that |
|
Some won't |
|
And time will tell |
|
Turn around |
|
Your life of hell |
|
The good old days |
|
Were such a waste of time |
|
You take a little schoolboy |
|
And teach him who to hate |
|
Then you |
|
Send him to the desert? |
|
For the oil near Kuwait? |
|
You try to change a world that |
|
You don't understand |
|
Now I'm so glad |
|
To be here today |
|
Cause from now |
|
Until forever |
|
And ever yeah |
|
You be lucky if |
|
You can stand up and say |
|
That you're a survivor |
|
Survivor |
|
Survivor |
|
You've got to choose |
|
If you wanna be a survivor |
|
Oh, oh, oh |
|
You've got to choose |
|
If you wanna be a survivor |
|
You've got to choose |
|
Oh, yes, |
|
I'm so glad to be here today |
|
I'm so glad |
|
To be a survivor |
|
You'll have to turn around your life a hell |
|
Can't change anything you don't understand |
|
Hmmm, hmmmm |
|
You oughta be glad |
