Keep yourself alive

Keep yourself alive

• Keep yourself alive-

  Il primo singolo dei Queen ( dall'album omonimo ) e' Keep yourself alive scritto interamente dal chitarrista Brian May ( secondo alcuni con la collaborazione di Mercury ). Non ebbe molto succeso nonostante l'album fosse rimasto per ben diciotto settimane nei primi trenta posti in GB.

  Di seguito riporto il testo tratto da una mia trascrizione...

  I was told a million times
  Of all the troubles in my way
  How I had to keep on trying
  Little better evry day
  But if I crossed a million rivers
  And I rode a million miles
  Then Id still be where I started
  Bread and butter for a smile
  Well I sold a million mirrors
  In a shop in alley way
  But I never saw my face
  In any window any day
  Well they say your folks are telling you
  To be a super star
  But I tell you just be satisfied
  To stay right where you are
  
  Keep yourself alive keep yourself alive
  Itll take you all your time and a money
  Honey youll survive
  
  Well Ive loved a million women
  In a belladonic haze
  And I ate a million dinners
  Brought to me on silver trays
  Give me evrything I need
  To feed my body and my soul
  And Ill grow a little bigger
  Maybe that can be my goal
  I was told a million times
  Of all the people in my way
  How I had to keep on trying
  And get better evry day
  But if I crossed a million rivers
  And I rode a million miles
  Then Id still be where I started
  Still be where I started
  
  Keep yourself alive keep yourself alive
  Itll take you all your time and money honey
  Youll survive
  
  Keep yourself alive
  Keep yourself alive
  Itll take you all your time and money
  To keep me satisfied
  Do you think youre better evry day
  No I just think Im two steps nearer to my grave
  Keep yourself alive
  Keep yourself alive mm
  You take your time and take your money
  Keep yourself alive
  Keep yourself alive
  Keep yourself alive
  All you people keep yourself alive
  Keep yourself alive
  Keep yourself alive
  Itll take you all your time and a money
  To keep me satisfied
  Keep yourself alive
  Keep yourself alive
  All you people keep yourself alive
  Take you all your time and money honey
  You will survive
  
  Keep you satisfied
  Keep you satisfied
