Текст песни: Survival Song + перевод

And I broke my promise on a very sharp rock

And I was possessed by something quite unfriendly

And I was haunted by a demon in my sleep

And that’s how I learned how to survive

And I gave a beer to a bum that was drinking

And I gave some sauce to my bestest friend for cooking

And I gave water to all I thought were thirsty

And that’s how I learned how to survive

And I gave my money to the bank for safe keeping

And I gave my money to my landlord, he was needing it

And I gave attention to the T.V. that was bleeding

And that’s how I learned how to survive

But if you ain’t got the do-re-mi boys

If you ain’t got the do-re-mi

Well you better go back to beautiful Texas

Oklahoma, Kansas, Georgia, Tennessee

California’s a garden of Eden, a paradise to live in or see

But believe it or not, you won’t find it so hot

If you ain’t got the do-re-mi

And we totally ripped off a man named Woody Guthrie

And I bought a restaurant for his son named Alice

And I fed false information to the audience

And that’s how I learned how to survive

And I give a thank-you to my father for not raising me

And I give a finger to my step-father for beating me

And I give props to myself for achieving

And god damn, I’m glad that I survived

And god damn, I’m surprised that I survived

And I just handed you a giant load of gibberish

And I give love to a lover quite deserving of it

And I give thanks to all of you for withstanding

The story of how we learned how to survive
