Live to Fight Another Day Songtext
30 hour flight in a dingy dirigible
In a cloudy sky where the land wasn′t visible
Sat a quiet man so focused
Just had one thought in his brain
Nathaniel knew what he had to do
He had to find a way
To kill the pain
For years he had searched to improve his condition
He had pain in his eyes and it clouded his vision
Spending all his time and money
It was driving him insane!
Well, he swore up and down he would search the world around
Until his sweet relief could be attained
When he heard of a man with a treatment
An experimental method that could cure him if he went
So Nathaniel headed there with eyes fixed firmly on the prize!
And when everything was done
All his pain was finally gone
But then so were his eyes!
Well
That's alright!
That′s okay!
Don't you know you'll live to fight another day?
Use a little grease, make sure you never cease
To keep your wheels turning in the proper way!
That′s alright!
That′s okay!
Don't you know you′ll live to fight another day?
Use a little grease, make sure you never cease
To keep your wheels turning in the proper way!
So he carried on, even though he was eyeless
And he learned how to write with a slate and a stylus
There was nothing in this world that he would let stand in his way!
He was strong
He was proud
He let nothing get him down
His drive was getting bolder every day
He could sail through the sky with precision
He could sense where he was even though he lost his vision
But the one thing that he couldn't see was something yet to come!
As he tightened his grip on a rope is when it slipped
And then he lost his thumbs!
Well
That′s alright!
That's okay!
Don′t you know you'll live to fight another day?
Use a little grease, make sure you never cease
To keep your wheels turning in the proper way!
That's alright!
That′s okay!
Don′t you know you'll live to fight another day?
Use a little grease, make sure you never cease
To keep your wheels turning in the proper way!
But still he endured
He was fully determined
He would search for a cure and his passion was burning
As he spent his every moment doing research for the cause
He would try
He would fail
He would write his notes in braille
And he would make improvements on his flaws
Others laughed, no one thought he could do it
People said he should quit, but he kept sticking to it
He refused to let his handicaps make him feel insecure
And though everybody scoffed
All his diligence paid off
When he finally found the cure!
So never give up
Never, never give up
No, never give up
Never, never give up
No!
That′s alright!
That's okay!
Don′t you know you'll live to fight another day?
Use a little grease, make sure you never cease
To keep your wheels turning in the proper way!
That′s alright!
That's okay!
Don't you know you′ll live to fight another day?
Use a little grease, make sure you never cease
To keep your wheels turning in the proper way!
In a cloudy sky where the land wasn′t visible

Use a little grease, make sure you never cease
