9 whole lives and I’m going strong,
9 whole lives and I’m going strong,
8 for the things that I done wrong,
8 for the things that I’ve done wrong,

7 little lives cos I ran away,
I got 7 little lives cos I ran away,
7 little lives cos I ran away,
And 6 were saved for a rainy day,
6 were saved for a rainy day,

5 alive but holding on,
I got 5 alive but holding on,
5 alive but holding on,
4 more lives and a heart of stone.
4 more lives and a heart of stone.

3 getting closer to the final day,
I got 3 getting closer to the final day,
3 getting closer to the final day,
2 more lives and I’m here to stay.

Got 1 more life and I’ll share for us
Now I’m homecoming and carefree cos,

8 little lives don’t seem that much,
8 little lives don’t seem that much,
8 little lives don’t seem that much
Now I’m homecoming and careful cos
