Jon English Overture Survivor Lyrics

Overture Survivor Lyrics

Oh will ya stop, I thought I heard a sou-ound



A back door creakin' with no-one arou-ound



A flash and a glare and a blindin' light and a crowd







Saw Mr Righteous poundin' the stage



Wavin' his fists in impotent rage



And every second becomes an age aloud



And oh, look at me







Oh-hoh-oh, well I'm a survivor, sometime



Oh-hoh, I'm a survivor



I've been around, I've been around



I've been arou-ound







And the boys in the back row are still actin' tough



But the band plays on, callin' the bluff



Words are like shadows, they're never enough when they're lyin'



I ain't lyin'







The disco kid swears he'll give up his life



For one night of freedom in paradise



When you've had enough, don't sit down cryin'



Look out







Oh-hoh-oh, I'm a survivor, sometime



Oh-hoh, I'm a survivor



I've been arou-ound, I've been around, a long-long ti-ime



Ooh, I've been around, been around, been around



It's a long-long ti-i-ime







Well the Hollywood starlet flew back to her ho-ome



She knew many men but she still went alone



I like to think that she ain't gonna die



She went off to history with open eyes



And you who would die, come back again



Change the world with a stroke of a pen



There's an easy answer the warrior cries



Look out, look ou-out, look out



Im a survivor







Oh-hoh-oh, I'm a survivor, I'll survive



And keep it all clear, I'm gonna survi-ive



So you look at me, come on see-ee



Oh-hoh, I'm gonna survive
