Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Flatlined twice in the back of a truck Third time's a charm, I guess I'm out of luck They said "you're a miracle, you cheated the grave" I said "shut your mouth, I was finally behaving" Down in the fire, I had a good seat Now I'm back in the dust with blisters on my feet [Chorus] I lived, and I'm pissed about it Had a one-way ticket, someone went and routed it Back to this wasteland, back to this curse Last time I checked, dead was better — or worse? I lived, and don't you dare clap Resurrection's a joke without a good nap So save your confetti, save your parade I lived, and I'm pissed — and that's the price I paid [Verse 2] Got a second chance I never asked for Somebody upstairs must be keeping score Or maybe the devil just wanted me gone Didn't care where I landed as long as I moved along Either way, I'm breathing and that's the bad news Bought a beer with a coupon, still felt like I got screwed [Chorus] I lived, and I'm pissed about it Had a one-way ticket, someone went and routed it Back to this wasteland, back to this curse Last time I checked, dead was better — or worse? I lived, and don't you dare clap Resurrection's a joke without a good nap So save your confetti, save your parade I lived, and I'm pissed — and that's the price I paid [Bridge — spoken, spitting] Everyone keeps saying "you're so lucky to be alive" Lucky? Lucky is finding a twenty in your coat pocket. Lucky is the last cold beer at the gas station. Lucky is not waking up face-down in a ditch again. [beat] I died. Went to hell. Got evicted. And now I'm back here. With you people. [laughs, no joy] Lucky. [Guitar break — fast, angry, notes bending like they're trying to escape] [Outro — sung, shouting now] I lived, and I'm pissed about it! Don't throw a party, don't you dare plan a parade! Just point me to the nearest cliff And then get out of my way! I lived, I lived, I LIVED — And I'm pissed about it every single goddamn day! [last chord rings. Heavy breathing. Then, muttered:] ...someone get me a drink. [boots stomp. Fade.]
