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 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)

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'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).

Can't you hear us breathing, baby.
We're alive....
