I'm Alive [3:14] - Zipper Catches Skin, 1981/2
	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
