Good To Be Alive Lyrics - Singles - Slash's Snakepit

You told me you're an orphan 

The same old standard line 

Then we moved in together 

All you did was moan and cry 

Talkin' like you'd make it 

On life's big movie screen 

I had to say, I loved you 

Just to try and keep the peace 

Hustler, what are you doin' with your time? 

I'm slow to catch on 

But I think you wasted mine 

You're running low tonight 

Jack up and get it right 

You know, you're going down 

Ain't it good to be alive 

I couldn't make excuses about 

Everything you said 

You wanna show your bruises 

Let's throw a party for the band 

Now here they come a dancin' 

Like the powder to your nose 

Why don't you cut your head off? 

Spite your face, let's do the show 

Hustler, what are you doin' with your time? 

I'm slow catchin' on 

But I think you wasted mine 

Hustler, you're running low tonight 

The station's right close by 

Pack up your car and drive 

Ain't it good to be alive 

Tearing of the membrane 

Of the first new thing in years 

Found a nagging consolation 

In a glass of Everclear 

And the ugly truth has raped you 

Saying you're a lousy lay 

But isn't everything that way 

Ain't it good to be alive 

So good to be alive
