The Whigs - Staying Alive Lyrics

“we're gonna beat it,” is what he said.
Peter brown's on the ground and i think he's dead

I know the feeling
I’ve been there too
They put you down long enough
That you think it's true

So tell me the good part and repeat it
You're never that angry when you're sad

So if you mean it
I mean it too
Peter brown always says that it’s nothing new

He won’t repeat it because its wrong
The only thing in your head without another song

So if you believe me
Would you tell me?
You're never that angry
When you're mad

Staying alive way too long
Wind me up - push me along
Staying alive way too long
Wind me up
Wind me up

So if you want me
I want you too
Peter brown always says that he's thirty two

An hour later, it’s all a dream
I'm wide awake and i think that i wanna leave...

So tell me a story and repeat it
You’re never that angry
If you’re mad
