I get up —
I run through the world like a fire
Heat it up —
I swim in the flames of desire
Chase it if you care — take it if you dare —
It's there in the air…
Answer to the gun — dance in the sun —
Run boy run…
Run for your life — you're movin' on and on
The art of survival is turnin' me on
And I'll be chasin' it all night long
(Don'tcha wanna live)
I get out —
I roam through the streets like a tiger
Let it out —
I swing like a bird on a wire
Everywhere you go everybody knows —
Oh don'tcha know…
Everythin' you do — anybody new —
They're all on to you…
Fight for your life — turn it all round
The art of survival isn't gettin' me down
And I'll be chasin' it all night long
(Don'tcha wanna live)
