"SURVIVE"

 © COLDSTART Dec 2009 

It was the end of night I was the last one up

Took a dare from my friends for 50 bucks

I was a little bit nervous a lot of bit drunk

The lights went dim and the song came up

I heard the music and I knew I was in trouble

Thank god I made that shot a double

The boys are laughing as the song began

That’s when like I fool I began singin

 I will survive

I was petrified

But I grew strong

So I carried on

I will survive

I will survive

 What started out being a big fat joke

All the boys thought that I would choke

But when they realized that  I was getting

some serious female attention

They tried to distract me, make me laugh

But I was king I was the quarterback

The voice was crackin I fumbled some lines

they didn’t care they were going wild

 I will survive

Because I am strong

I will survive

So I carried on

I will survive

I will survive

 <Bridge>

Cause there’s nothing wrong

With being the karoke king

And with the right song

You may find yourself a queen

 I will survive

Cause I am strong

I will survive

So I carried on

For my first time up in front of a crowd

I may have sang off key but I sang it loud

And All good things must come to an end

I have to say a little thank you to my good friends

Because she gave me her telephone number

I remembered the boys would pay for dinner

5 minute song for 50 bucks was  great

I can’t wait for our first date

I will survive

Because I am strong

I will survive

So let’s carry on

I will survive

I will survive

I will survive

I will survive
