I Was Alive
The night I met you
You were a fucken disgrace
Tripping over people
Falling flat on your face
I thought I'd dance with you
Cos you wouldn't remember
A year ago now
Yeah that was the end of December
There's been blood
There's been biting
There's been Lizzy Taylor, Richard Burton fighting
Its all gone bad
That's alright
Cause god I was alive
God I was alive
Found your schoolgirl French somewhere in the haze
And I was gone by the middle of the very first phrase
All's fair in the love and war in the eastern suburbs I suppose
So I empty the contents of my pocket in your nose
Well there's been blood
And there's been biting
There's been drunk and disorderly fighting
All down the street and through the night
God I was alive
God I was alive
She don't know which one to buy
Australian shooter or Australian bride
I throw my head up into the sky
Thank Dionysius for a little while I was alive
I was alive
God I was alive
Using up fast
The last days of my youth
Trying to see if you were coming from my hot tin roof
And rolling down the highway looking like an evil child
Forty hours later you'd be back in the wild
There's been blood
Biting
Lizzy and Richard fighting
Its all gone bad
That's alright
All down the street
All through the night
And god I was alive
God I was alive
God I was alive
God I was alive
She don't know which one to buy
Australian shooter or Australian bride
You were a fucken disgrace
Tripping over people
Falling flat on your face
I thought I'd dance with you
Cos you wouldn't remember
A year ago now
Yeah that was the end of December
There's been blood
There's been biting
There's been Lizzy Taylor, Richard Burton fighting
Its all gone bad
That's alright
Cause god I was alive
God I was alive
Found your schoolgirl French somewhere in the haze
And I was gone by the middle of the very first phrase
All's fair in the love and war in the eastern suburbs I suppose
So I empty the contents of my pocket in your nose
Well there's been blood
And there's been biting
There's been drunk and disorderly fighting
All down the street and through the night
God I was alive
God I was alive
She don't know which one to buy
Australian shooter or Australian bride
I throw my head up into the sky
Thank Dionysius for a little while I was alive
I was alive
God I was alive
Using up fast
The last days of my youth
Trying to see if you were coming from my hot tin roof
And rolling down the highway looking like an evil child
Forty hours later you'd be back in the wild
There's been blood
Biting
Lizzy and Richard fighting
Its all gone bad
That's alright
All down the street
All through the night
And god I was alive
God I was alive
God I was alive
God I was alive
She don't know which one to buy
Australian shooter or Australian bride
