Alive But Iffy
The best way to tell if you're still alive
Is to breathe on a window pane
If the window suddenly starts to fog up
You're alive but its iffy all the same
Shouldn't have to use this old time method
Normally you really should know
To help your loved ones feel more at ease
You should move every hour or so
They really get worried and start to fret
If you haven't moved for days
Think the grim reaper had stolen you away
A silly game at times you play
So smile damn it, your face won't crack
It's made to show happy and stuff
Life could definitely be a whole lot worse
If they find you outside in the buff
