Dead or Alive

(Blackmore/Gillan/Glover) don't turn off the light you might draw the queen of spades don't shut the door you don't need to be alone i won't bring you no food there might be some poison in your meat i've got to know are you dead or alive don't shut the door are you dead or alive dead or alive pick your window you're leaving don't look in the mirror with a dollar up your face you've got money to burn you're cheap at half the price oh don't powder your nose don't blow your brains just for the the crack i've got to know are you dead or alive just for the crack are you dead or alive dead or alive pick your window you're leaving you're running so fast but you know you're standing still i'm afraid of your shadow and the knife in it's hand you're dancing with death to the tune of the dealer and he don't care don't give a toss don't want to know if you're dead or alive don't want to know if you're dead or alive dead or alive pick your window you're leaving
