Oh! Breathe in. Ah! Breathe out
Oh! Breathe in. Ah! Breathe out

Oh, you're alive. Yes, you're alive
You're ali-i-i-i-ive and that's no jive (that's no jive)

You breathe and eat and grow
And that is how you know
Ah, ah, ah...

You're alive. Yes, you're alive (alive)
You're ali-i-i-i-ive . You're alive

Oh! Breathe in. Ah! Breathe out
Oh! Breathe in. Ah! Breathe out

Well a rock's not alive (no, no, no, no)
And a clock's not alive (no, no, no, no)
A telephone's not alive (no, no, no, no)
An ice cream cone's not alive (no, no, no, no)

They don't breathe or eat or grow (ooh)
And that is how you know-oh-oh (no, no, no)
They're not alive. They're not alive (alive)
They're not ali-i-i-i-ive (not alive)
Oh! Breathe in. Ah! Breathe out
Oh! Breathe in. Ah! Breathe out

But then again
A frog is alive (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
A dog is alive (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
A pony is alive (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
And a bunny is alive (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

They breathe and eat and grow
And that is how you know...

They're alive, yes, they're alive (alive)
They're ali-i-i-i-ive. They're alive

Oh! Breathe in. Ah! Breathe out
Oh! Breathe in. Ah! Breathe out

One more time....
You're alive and we're alive
We're ali-i-i-i-ive and that's no jive (that's no jive)

Oh, you better believe it, baby
Can't you hear us breathing, baby
We're alive....
