Arrive Alive - Electric Six

Yelling at the world as he leaves us all behind

Looking for a girl who still says «Be kind, rewind»

Travelling at speeds, maternity exceeds

Rolling through time and space like tumbleweeds

I wanted to wave the white flag and join the hive

And arrive alive with you

I wanted to stuff the white bag with human lies

And get out alive

And cut through

I wanted to sing for my supper

Down every upper

And slide from room to room

Baby, we are meant to drift until we die

Maybe let us in to rip while we curse and cry

Give us a little less imagination and more feels

A vapid dissertation that takes a thousand years

I wanted to change the outcome that she’d arrive

From 9 to 5 to 1−2

I wanted to save the comrade that she survived

And display it in Kathmandu

I wanted to share the sharecropper

And launch the Big Bopper

Arrive alive with you

Building a better mouse trap takes a hundred million bills

Because sailing through stars requires next level skills

Building a better damn takes a certain kind of beaver

Because to trip the fantastic you must become a true believer

I wanted to take all the provision that you provide

And drink Five Alive with you

I want to sign the dotted line and stay inside

'Cause there’s literally nothing to do

I want to discount the bee counter

Make the edges rounder

Arrive alive with you
