03. Alive

Rock What You Got
by Superchick



 

Don’t bury me, I’m not yet dead
Not a walking zombie with no head
Not a Stepford wife made to obey
Don’t want to go through life that way

I’m alive, I’m alive
That’s what I say
I’m alive, I’m alive
Gonna live that way
I’m alive, I’m alive
That’s what I say
I’m alive and I’m gonna live today

Do robots dream of electric sheep?
I need to live my dreams, not just in my sleep
I’ve been holed up here, but it’s time to leave
I need to make my move while I’ve air to breathe

Don’t give me drugs, no Novocaine
I must be alive ‘cause I still feel pain
We were born with wings
We were made to fly
We were meant to live while we’re still alive




Behind the Song:
"I studied computer science in high school. I had an uncle at IBM who helped to develop the microdrive. I spent 4 years studying computer science, and when I graduated I got recruited at a big network solutions company. I was there for 5 years until the tech collapse left us all without jobs. Now I’m doing IT maintenance at a big box chain. Every day I get to work, fix the same problems and play solitaire until 5:30 when my boss isn’t looking. Superchick never existed. We didn’t sell 700,000 records. I never met all the amazing people that are my friends today. I didn’t see 20,000 of them jumping up and down at our show in New Zealand. I never wrote and produced records. I never photographed covers for magazines and albums. I never shot music videos. I never tried surfing, bought my motorcycle or jumped out of a plane. I never met my wife.

Well, that’s what would have happened if I’d done the “sensible” thing. But everyone is born with a destiny. God gives us talents that he means us to use. We are meant to live, while we’re still alive.

(no disrespect intended to my fellow geeks in the computer industry – I’ll probably be asking you for a job when this ride ends!)" - Max Hsu (Superchick)
