Radio Paradise (mobile)

At first I was afraid
I was petrified
I kept thinking I could never live
Without you by my side
But then I spent so many nights
Just thinking how you've done me wrong
I grew strong
I learned how to get along
And so you're back
From outer space
I just walked in to find you
Here without that look upon your face
I should have changed my door lock
I would have made you leave your key
If I had known for just one second
You'd be back to bother me
Oh now go
Walk out the door
Just turn around now
You're not welcome anymore
Weren't you the one
Who tried to break me with desire?
Did you think I'd crumble?
Did you think I'd lay down and die?
Oh not I
I will survive
Yeah
As long as I know how to love
I know I'll be alive
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
I will survive
I will survive
Yeah, yeah
It took all the strength I had
Just not to fall apart
I'm trying hard to mend the pieces
Of my broken heart
And I spent oh, so many nights
Just feeling sorry for myself
I used to cry
But now I hold my head up high
And you see me
With somebody new
I'm not that stupid little person
Still in love with you
And so you thought you'd just drop by
And you expect me to be free
But now I'm saving all my lovin'
For someone who's lovin' me
Oh now go
Walk out the door
Just turn around
Now, you're not welcome anymore
Weren't you the one
Who tried to break me with desire?
Did you think I'd crumble?
Did you think I'd lay down and die?
Oh not I
I will survive
Yeah
As long as I know how to love
I know I'll be alive
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
I will survive
I will survive
Yeah, yeah
Da da, da da, da da dada...
Da, da, da, da, dada dada dada dada
...
Oh no

I learned today that the Fucking police are angry because British tourists are continually stealing the Fucking sign from the edge of town. In fact, the police are so mad that they've now sunk the Fucking sign in concrete. That ought to discourage those, um, British tourists. [ Reply ]

lemmoth Mar 03, 2010 - 14:28	This song in its original version has always threatened me as a man because of the way it riles up the feminist in any woman at a wedding. Thanks to Cake for making it safe for me to enjoy it again. [ Reply ]
crockydile Mar 03, 2010 - 14:28	This could have been outstanding. His staccato vocals kinda ruin it for me. Still, I give it a 6 for pure novelty. [ Reply ]
ginniet Mar 03, 2010 - 14:28	Sorry, I'm loyal to the original, feminist version. I was newly widowed when it came out, so it has a meaning for me. This version is gross. [ Reply ]

It comes off like an alcohol-slurred, bitter rant which in and of it self is just plain funny as a satirical slant on the original anthem of perseverance. [ Reply ]
Dave_Mack Mar 03, 2010 - 14:27	Whoa, that guitar solo is just a little toooooo ironic. Was great up until then, with awesome bass playing. [ Reply ]

musickat Dec 30, 2009 - 16:08	I think this quite innovative. As a recently divorced woman, I kind of like hearing the male perspective. Jams too. [ Reply ]
upgal Dec 30, 2009 - 16:07	I have heard bad versions of songs, but this is one of the most god-awful things I have ever heard. barfo-sucko for sure! I'm going on rhapsody and hearing the real one! [ Reply ]
furaha Dec 30, 2009 - 16:07	Maybe the worst guitar solo since "in a gadda da vida" [ Reply ]
