Ted Leo and The Pharmacists
Rappaport’s Testament: I Never Gave Up
And if you survive me
I Never gave up
Tell them this
I Never gave up
And if you survive me
I Never gave up
Tell them this
Almost as if I were planning ahead
I drank, I ate, I made love
I learnt to snatch whatever I could
I never asked for pity and I never gave up
And if you survive me
I Never gave up
Tell them this
I Never gave up
And if you survive me
I Never gave up
Tell them this
Almost as if I were planning ahead
Twenty months I kept accounts
And in the end they'll balance out
Sometimes I vomit happy memories
Sometimes I laugh out loud just to crack my face
And if you survive me
I Never gave up
Tell them this
I Never gave up
And if you survive me
I Never gave up
Tell them this
Almost as if I were planning ahead
And if I meet Hitler in the other place
I'll spit this precious soup in his face
And all my accounts will be settled, you see
'Cause Hitler never ever got the better of me
And if you survive me
I Never gave up
Tell them this
I Never gave up
And if you survive me
I Never gave up
Tell them this
Almost as if I were planning ahead
I never gave up, I never gave up
I crawled in the mud but I never gave up
I never gave up, I never gave up
I crawled in the mud but I never gave up
