Lyrics

So... you think it's funny about the li'l junkie, he was down on Santa Monica and Vine
He's at the detox center wearin' a letterman's sweater but he was claimin' he was having' a good time

You might think it's strange about the scary little spooks singing songs 'bout slowly dyin'
And a doctor arrest a cardiac patient, he was a friend of mine.
I say oh. It's a scary feeling' to be alive

So... you think it's stinky about the li'l dwarf who stands in front of Canter's every night
He guesses people's weight and their age but it never seems to come up right

And you might think it's strange 'bout the scary li'l spooks singing songs 'bout slowly dyin'
And a doctor arrest a cardiac patient but he was kinda blind
I say oh. It's a painful feelin' to be alive
I say oh. It's a scary feelin' to be alive

***Guitar Solo***
***Saxophone Solo***

So... you think it's funny about the li'l junkie, he was down on Santa Monica and Vine
He's at the detox center wearin' a letterman's sweater but he claimed he was havin' a good time

You might think it's strange about the scary little spooks singing songs 'bout slowly dyin'
And a doctor arrest a cardiac patient, personal friend of mine.
I say oh. It's a painful feeling' to be alive
I say oh. Maybe I better go listen to my fake radio. Get a fake newscast
I say oh. Hey Willy, I'm gonna go get my toy telephone. I'm gonna talk to Spyder on it
I say oh. It's a scary feelin' to be alive
