"Keep 'Em Alive" lyrics - THE DAMNED
[Intro:]
Keep 'em alive
Keep 'em alive
Keep 'em alive
Keep 'em alive
Keep 'em alive
Keep 'em alive
Keep 'em alive
Keep 'em alive
Keep 'em alive
Keep 'em alive
The summer breeze caress the leaves
In webs spiders sway
And is this rain comes pouring down
Or some other spray? (Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah)
[Pre-Chorus:]
(Ah) I guess it's all of us now trying just to keep it alive
(Ah) In cities nothing but a concrete zoo
(Ah) Where once it would've been nature's call how many creatures survive
We haven't got a clue, yeah yeah yeah yeah
[Chorus:]
Keep 'em alive
Keep 'em alive
Keep 'em alive
Keep 'em alive
The flowers bloom, the crickets chirp
And a sparrow calls
Amongst the trees where once were bees
There's no buzz at all (Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah)
[Pre-Chorus:]
(Ah) I guess we know the consequences if we don't keep em alive
(Ah) When bees stop buzzing there's no bread for us to chew
(Ah) When the corks back in the bottle maybe nature will thrive
Then life will start anew, yeah yeah yeah yeah
[Chorus:]
Keep 'em alive
Keep 'em alive
Keep 'em alive
Keep 'em alive
[Guitar solo]
[Keyboard Solo]
[Outro:]
Keep 'em alive
Keep 'em alive
Keep 'em alive
Keep 'em alive
Keep 'em alive
Keep 'em alive
Keep 'em alive
Keep 'em alive
Keep 'em alive
Keep 'em alive
Keep 'em alive...
