lyrics

Michael told me to forget the plan
Michael told me to be a man
If you feel like you're dead, feel alive instead.
Yes, that's what Michael said

Michael went out last night.
He almost got in a bar fight.
It's not that I've sunk, I just get drunk, ok?

Michael stayed up too late.
Decided to bail on his date.
He said "Girls can be found all around town. I don't care!"

Michael told me to forget the plan.
Michael told me to be a man.
If you feel like you're dead, feel alive instead.
Yes, that's what Michael said.

Michael surfs the net at work.
He never feels like a jerk.
It's time to be spent to get money for rent, ok?

Michael took a break today.
He thinks that cigarettes are ok.
It's food that i want and black water in my cup all day.

Michael told me to forget the plan.
Michael told me to be a man.
If you feel like you're dead, feel alive instead.
Yes, that's what Michael said.

Michael fell asleep on the train.
He thought he had gone insane.
Sometimes I ride, sometimes I hide, but I'll live.

Michael was unemployed.
He thought he had filled that void.
He said "Do what you love and love what you do, ok?"
Do what you love and love what you do, ok?

Michael told me to forget the plan.
Michael told me to be a man.
If you feel like you're dead, feel alive instead.
Yes, that's what Michael said.

If you feel like you're dead, feel alive instead.
Yes, that's what Michael said.

about

George Fetner (and the Strays) image

George Fetner (and the Strays) Columbia, South Carolina

His guises have included stormy Britfolk songwriter (Some Things We’ll Change) and avant-garde composer (Beneath the Ice). But Fetner seems most natural fronting The Strays, a rangy and loose-limbed rock ‘n’ roll ensemble that’s built for a good time: Swirling Hammond swells, greasy Tom Petty-isms, bubbly pep — these are the calling cards of a songwriter built to bridge crowds. edited, Free Times ... more
