I'm still alive, clawing for the sky and emoting in typical dramatic Crank The Shiny Tune fashion.
Simple Minds // Alive & Kicking // Sons of Fascination/Sister Feelings Call // 1981
What you gonna do when things go wrong?
What you gonna do when it all cracks up?
What you gonna do when the Love burns down?
What you gonna do when the flames go up?
Who is gonna come and turn the tide?
What's it gonna take to make a dream survive?
Who's got the touch to calm the storm inside?
Who's gonna save you?
Incidentally, another misheard lyrics with this one. Instead of alive and kicking, I always thought it was I love to kick it. You know, because the lyrics aren't in the song title or anything. So, happy Wednesday - hope you're all kicking it real nice.
(Best said in a really thick southern drawl. Just search it online, there are lots of cringe-worthy examples to choose from).
