Walking down the street with a sad face, always complaining about the rat race
Nobody said that life was free and easy
Your job, it sucks, it’s on the line, your wife act mean, your kids all cry
I need something that’s guaranteed to please me
But listen, I’ll tell ya, I’m glad to be alive and kicking
I’m glad to hear my heart’s still ticking
So pass me the wine, baby, and let’s make some love, yeah
Sometimes things don’t work out the way you want
I don’t know if I’m gonna laugh or cry
Your friends, they’ll never call you back, you’re feeling such a sad sack
Like some snack that’s gone all cold and greasy, yes
The car you drive a rusty wreck and it’s always you that pays the check
Who said life was warm and peachy
But listen, yeah, I’ll tell ya, I’m glad to be alive and kicking
My blood is up, my pulse is quickening
Pass the wine boy, let’s make some love
Sometimes things don’t work out the way you want
I wonder why, I wonder why, ah yeah
Sometimes mistakes come back to haunt you, baby
And I don’t know whether to laugh or cry, yeah
Yeah, come on, yeah, I got to be alive and kicking, glad to be alive and kicking
I’m glad to have a pot to piss in, glad to be alive and kicking
You got to be alive and kicking, got to be, yeah, come on, got to be, yeah…
Got to be alive and kicking, good to be alive and kicking
Glad to see the plot is thickening, pass the wine, let’s make some love
Let’s make some love, let’s make some love, let’s make some love
