It's comedy, folks. AND it's Knives having his say.

Think the two will mix? Take a read.

I'm Still Alive

As sung by Knives from the anime series "Trigun"

as sung to"I Will Survive," orginally sung by Aretha Franklin


(cue music)

At first we were on top

We were dignified

Knowin' we'd have our own Eden at each other's side

After all, I took the time to destroy the human race

And then disgrace…

It seems you haven't learned your place…

You stabbed my back

With my own guns!

I tried to kill them all, my brother dear, so we'd be the only ones

I should have skinned that stupid Rem

I shoulda purged those tainted chimps

If I'd a known for just one second you'd be a pathetic wimp

So I don't know

What you're mad for

Just simmer down now

Sure, you don't have an arm no more.

Weren't you the one who went and shot me in the leg

You think I'd humble?

You think I'd bow down and beg?

Oh no, not I!

I'm still alive!

Oh, as long as I have this big blue tub,

I know I'll grow and thrive

I've got all these pep's to kill

And Bluesummers knows I will

For I am Knives!

I'm still alive!

It took all the strength I had not to be blown to space

Lookin' down to find there's nothing left below my waist

And I spent oh so many nights lookin' for you, my other self

I thought I'd die

But a lot's changed since old July.

Just look at me!

My legs renewed!

I'm not a gimpy little torso thanks to Mr. Blue.

And so I felt like stoppin' by just to say that I am back and free

And now I'm leavin' all my revenge to these spiders servin' me!

Yes, yes. I know

I lost before...

Oh, stop the tears now!

Geez, you're not Rem's sidekick anymore.

Weren't you the one who burned a hole up in the sky?

Yeah, so I fumbled.

'Least I don't lay down and cry!

Oh no, not I

I'm still alive!

Oh, as long as I know psychic tricks, I'll complete this genocide

I've got a million lives to live

And I won't rest while you still live

Cause I'll revive

I'm still alive!

Ohh…

Come on, Vash, bro

You know the score

They're like'n me now

'Cause your monologues are a bore

You thought your plan to kill just me was gonna fly?

Plots aren't so simple.

The writers won't let me die!

Oh no, not I!

I'm still alive!

As long as the reruns are on, I'll be sayin' no good-byes

Yes, this role I will reprise

So we've got sequels to revise

Cause I've revived

I'm still alive!
