Survive It

Che che-che che che-che check I... Yeh yeh-ya yay Yah ya ya ya ya yeah Ok, tsk I'm 44 years old and life ain't golden Like juice got served when you got no cash, Got no cheque book, got no credit card Life is pretty hard I'sure you can see that I'm plus under-rated, plus bare knockbacks Been shown the door because they're talkin' 'bout cut backs And you think what next left or the right but Key in the door but the door won't open And heartbeat frozen, look to the heavens, But nobody's coming and the pie's in the oven So you stop mind wandering and back to the present, it's a Dinner for one with the dinner lights on And you're tryna get atmosphere Like she was here, but she's long gone Like Rocky Balboa and Adrian Teardrops while you sip on the 'eavy end No no no no no no Ain't got the licence to kill like double 'O I jus' wanna live life and survive it No no no no no no Ain't got the licence to kill like double 'O I jus' wanna live life and survive it I gotta move man but it's hard when you're glued in place I so desperately wanna leave this pace In a steamy hot bath I just hide my face, The world looks different underwater I coulda had a son or a daughter When I had the chance to a trip to Mallorca Life is a funny thing with the twists and turns And in the bad times it just breaks and burns But as you just get older you just live and learn And shrug your shoulders and be the bigger man But, I remember nights in December Fairy lights and torn out wrapping paper and happy times, Now it's happy slaps and how big's your gap And all that crap I'm not gonna allow that I know there's reason to part but I'll get through If I just remember that... No no no no no no Ain't got the licence to kill like double 'O I jus' wanna live life and survive it No no no no no no Ain't got the licence to kill like double 'O I jus' wanna live life and survive it I know Times are hard You're against the wall, and You're head is down, but I think You'll get there soon Just have a little faith mate It'll turn out great Yeah, it's all mapped out, like one of them sat navs You need to get over there, then down to here, Go down the road and left at the roundabout Head out the window so much to shout about Unnaturally buzzing, allow pessimism Burn in the flames like a phoenix has risen, well I hope so That's the plan in the end a get a nice house a few true friends A wife I can cry with laugh and create with kids so beautiful they're truly a blessing, But I'm just guessing just speculating Thinking aloud you know all that's what I do And I don't know much but I know what is right Don't mock my grit, skin Trying my best But I'm only a man doing what I can I'll go forth, with these words in my hand, in my hand No no no no no no Ain't got the licence to kill like double 'O I jus' wanna live life and survive it No no no no no no Ain't got the licence to kill like double 'O I jus' wanna live life and survive it No, no, no, no, no, no, I jus' wanna live life and survive it No, no, no, no, no, no, I jus' wanna live life and survive it
