Rappaport's Testament: I Never Gave Up

(album: Slap! - 1990)

[Chorus]
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

[Repeat chorus]

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

[Repeat chorus]

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

[Repeat chorus]

I never gave up, I never gave up
I crawled in the mud but I never gave up

[Repeat]
