The Lyrics

Song about food safety
Well you can tell by the way I choose my food
I'm a worried guy, in a cautious mood
Food safety scares, they're everywhere
And they're telling me I should beware
There's pesticides, Mad Cow Disease
Sure don't put my mind at ease
Biotech, and MSG
Messin' with my sanity

Don't want hepatitis or that gastroenteritis
I'm just stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Scrubbin' off my veggies and I'm heatin' all my burgers
Up to one-eighty-five, one-eighty-five
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive

Now when I was young I wouldn't hesitate
To chow right down, clean off my plate
With oysters raw and burgers rare
I enjoyed my food without a care
But now I hear, it's not OK
I might not live another day
Believin' Oprah, Meryl Streep
Soon I might be six feet deep

Don't want hepatitis or that gastroenteritis
I'm just stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Scrubbin' off my veggies and I'm heatin' all my burgers
Up to one-eighty-five, one-eighty-five
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive

I'm scared senseless. Somebody help me
Somebody help me, yeah
I'm scared senseless. Somebody help me
Somebody help me, yeah, stayin' alive

Well you can tell by the way I choose my food
I'm a worried guy, in a cautious mood
Food safety scares, they're everywhere
And they're telling me I should beware
There's pesticides, Mad Cow Disease
Sure don't put my mind at ease
Biotech, MSG
Messin' with my sanity

Don't want hepatitis or that gastroenteritis
I'm just stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Scrubbin' off my veggies and I'm heatin' all my burgers
Up to one-eighty-five, one-eighty-five
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive

I'm scared senseless. Somebody help me
Somebody help me, yeah
I'm scared senseless. Somebody help me
Somebody help me, yeah, stayin' alive

Carl, Superb! Flow is really "on" with the original. Johnny D - thanks for the recommend on the "Comments" page. I'm not a Bee-Gees fan so I probably wouldn't have caught this one.

Fine work, Carl, my applause, especially on working in "gastroenteritis"--a most excellent word. I gave 4 on pacing--little things, syllables that can be fixed here and there. (See my "Gimme A Five" and please tell me what you think.) An original idea here, well-executed. d;:^)
