STAYIN’ ALIVE AH AH AH AH

Disco pants 

Long hair

Chest hair 

Don’t care

You three look at me 

With such an inviting stare 

I let my frustration be 

I let it go for a song or two or three 

I dance along

Gotta move 

Gotta groove 

I know I just can’t lose

I feel myself breaking 

My world is shaking 

Anger creeping in 

Don’t let the pessimism win

Self doubt, what am I about?

No. I don’t want out.

Barry, Maurice, Robin- take it away

I’ll dance to see another day 

Hand rolls, stroll back, stroll forward and pose 

I might feel down, but with you three around

I thrive in your sound

I keep my head up, I strive

I’m stayin’ alive
