It's a sad affliction causing me restriction
This isn't what I wanted to do
I just can't belive it I would like to leave it

Don't like pretty bureaucracies and detentions
Don't wear those funny clothes
Get into schemes or pensions
Do the same thing every day
I can't stay up to late

Your not having me that stuff
Just drives me mental
I'm gonna stay right here
Ain't got nothing to fear
Watch out for me now cos
I'm alive watch the clock
I'm alive sitting here
I'm alive fall asleep
I'm alive loads of sheep
I’m Alive was written by Nick Cash (999) & Guy Days.
