Keep Yourself Alive Songtext
von Queen + Adam Lambert

Will you shake it up, shake it up
Shake it up
Ooh yeah
Lower
Little bit lower
Little bit lower
A little bit lower

My baby, baby
Shake your

Keep yourself alive

I was told a million times
Of all the troubles in my way
Tried to grow a little wiser
Little better ev′ry day
But if I crossed a million rivers
And I rode a million miles
Then I'd 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 superstar
But I tell you just be satisfied
To stay right where you are

Keep yourself alive, keep yourself alive
All you people, keep yourself alive

Well, I′ve loved a million women
In a belladonic haze
And I ate a million dinners
Brought to me on silver trays
Give me ev'rything I need
To feed my body and my soul
And I'll 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 ev′ry day
But if I crossed a million rivers
And I rode a million miles
Then I′d still be where I started
Same as when I started


Keep yourself alive, keep yourself alive
All you people, keep yourself alive
