After the glow, the scene, the stage,

The sad talk becomes slow but there's one thing I'll never forget:

Hey, you gotta pay your dues before you pay the rent

Over the turnstiles and out in the traffic

There's ways of livin' its the way I'm livin' right or wrong

Its all that I can do and I wouldn't wanna let you be



I wanna range life

If I could settle down

If I could settle down

Than I would settle down



I wanna range life

If I could settle down

If I could settle down

than I would settle down



Run from the pigs, the fuzz, the cops, the heat

Pass me your gloves

This crime, it is never complete

Until you snort it up or shoot it down

You're never gonna feel free

Out on my skateboard the night is just humming

And the gumsmacks are the pulse I'll follow

If my walkman fades

Well I got absolutely no one

No one but myself to blame

Don't worry, we're in no hurry

Schools out

What did you expect?



I wanna range life

If I could settle down

If I could settle down

Than I would settle down



I wanna range life

If I could settle down

If I could setle down

Than I would settle down



Out on tour with smashing pumpkins

Nature kids

I-- they don't have no function I dont understand a word they say

And I could really give a fuck

Stone Temple Pilots they're elegant bachelors

They're foxy to me, are they foxy to you?

I will agree they deserve absolutely nothin', nothin' more than me

Dreamin' dream dream dream dream...



...So Alive
