I was just kicking down the street And the sun was in my eyes So I couldn't see the truck That was sixty times my size And just seconds off from splattering me Let me tell you I was so scared I couldn't move Like my boots were full of glue Then I felt a little tug And I thought of good Old Blue And he pulled me from that catastrophe That was the day My dead pet returned to save my life I'm alive He's alive I'm alive I was spitting in the canyon Near the cliff up on the mountain When an unexpected sneeze Hung me in the breeze At forty five degrees in the sky Suddenly I felt something Had me by the belt And in between my praying Swore I heard a stallion neighing Was the ghost of my horse And I cried, yes I cried That was the day My dead pet returned to save my life That was the day My dead pet returned to save my life I'm alive He's alive Hey, I'm alive Things were getting gory Got caught on territory Belonging to the Crutches In an alley in their clutches Looking kind of dismal that night Well the leader's name was Fats Swinging broken baseball bats Things got really frantic Starting jumping in their panic That was the day My dead pet returned to save my life That was the day My dead pet returned to save my life I'm alive, I'm alive, real alive That was the day my dead pet returned That was the day my dead pet returned That was the day my dead pet returned That was the day my dead pet returned To save my life Hallucinating billions of rats Lots of rats I'm alive, I'm alive He's alive, he's alive, he's alive I'm alive, yeah He's alive, he's alive I'm alive, real alive Alive, alive, alive Alive, alive, alive, alive Alive, alive, alive, alive I'm alive
