Playing the game
|
With the chips on my shoulder
|
Checking in the mirror
|
As my coffee cup gets colder
|
Stagger and swagger
|
Combing my hair
|
If tomorrow's not there
|
Then at least today's all mine
|
|
Chorus:
|
|
While I'm still alive
|
While I'm still alive
|
While I'm still alive
|
|
Strutting my stuff
|
I'm blagging the damage
|
From coupling with headlines
|
I was suckled on salvage
|
The fighting's exciting
|
The age is dramatic
|
I'm crackling with static
|
Just jiving to survive
|
|
(Chorus)
|
|
Take a stroll down the side roads, I know you want to
|
A shock in the dark can be good for your heart, oh yeah
|
|
(Chorus)
|
|
Scuffling along
|
On the crest of a wave
|
Laughing and grafting
|
Or jerking and working
|
Striking a match
|
Where life is a gas
|
I need the flash
|
To make it all worthwhile
|
|
(Chorus)
|
