I'm Alive (That Was the Day My Dead Pet Returned to Save My Life)

I was just kicking down the street

And the sun was in my eyes

So I couldn't see the truck

That was sixty times my size

And just seconds off from splattering me

Let me tell you

I was so scared I couldn't move

Like my boots were full of glue

Then I felt a little tug

And I thought of good Old Blue

And he pulled me from that catastrophe

That was the day

My dead pet returned to save my life

I'm alive

He's alive

I'm alive

I was spitting in the canyon

Near the cliff up on the mountain

When an unexpected sneeze

Hung me in the breeze

At forty five degrees in the sky

Suddenly I felt something

Had me by the belt

And in between my praying

Swore I heard a stallion neighing

Was the ghost of my horse

And I cried, yes I cried

That was the day

My dead pet returned to save my life

That was the day

My dead pet returned to save my life

I'm alive

He's alive

Hey, I'm alive

Things were getting gory

Got caught on territory

Belonging to the Crutches

In an alley in their clutches

Looking kind of dismal that night

Well the leader's name was Fats

Swinging broken baseball bats

Things got really frantic

Starting jumping in their panic

Hallucinating billions of rats

Lots of rats

That was the day

My dead pet returned to save my life

That was the day

My dead pet returned to save my life

I'm alive, I'm alive, real alive

That was the day my dead pet returned

That was the day my dead pet returned

That was the day my dead pet returned

That was the day my dead pet returned

To save my life

I'm alive, I'm alive

He's alive, he's alive, he's alive

I'm alive, yeah

He's alive, he's alive

I'm alive, real alive

Alive, alive, alive

Alive, alive, alive, alive

Alive, alive, alive, alive

I'm alive
