This town's been dying since the day I was born The shops all boarded up, houses lying in ruin We got our backs to the wall We got to find a way to win Time is running out, hunt is closing in They're all lined up at the paradise for fools Where they give you ten to 20 If you dare to break the rules Take it to the streets, give your senator a call We rip up all subways, tear down the golden walls We're not dead yet, still alive Though we've to struggle to survive We got to take all we can get Don't count us out, we're not dead yet I got a gas hog in the garage I can't afford to drive I'd like to take a taxi, but I can't afford the ride There ain't a brand new hero riding to our aid 'Cause just like all the rest, he's been lowered in his grave A lot of people here just kiss their lives goodbye They just sit back and take it Never stop to wonder why They're staring at their TV sets That's where they're coming from For them the fight is over Ours is yet to come We're not dead yet, still alive Though we've to struggle to survive We got to take all we can get Don't count us out, we're not dead yet Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh ♪ Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh ♪ Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh ♪ Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh We're not dead yet, still alive Though we've to struggle to survive We got to take all we can get Don't count us out, we're not dead yet We're not dead yet, still alive Though we've to struggle to survive We got to take all we can get Don't count us out, we're not dead yet Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh ♪ Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
