Andrew W.K. - Music Is Worth Living For Lyrics






And I'll bet you never thought you'd live to see the day
Where we could play with joy and laughter
And I'll bet you never thought we'd make it all the way
And we could stay forever after

But I guess we proved you wrong
And I guess we showed 'em all
We paid our dues
Getting up off the floor
And I guess we proved you wrong
And I guess we showed 'em all
So much to lose
Walking right out the door

Music is worth living for!
Music makes life worth living
Music is worth living for
Music is worth living for!
Music makes life worth living
Music is worth living for

A higher power that I can't deny
Music makes me feel so high
Like the glorious sound of God
Coming down like a lightning rod
Give me the will to love
So below and as above
The only way that I'll survive
Music makes me want to stay alive

And I'll bet you never thought we had the strength inside
Yeah, we almost died and we kept on going
And I'll bet you never thought the pain was justified
But we found our pride and we kept it growing

But I guess we proved you wrong
And I guess we showed 'em all
We did our best
We played until our hands were sore
And I guess we proved you wrong
And I guess we showed 'em all
Never gunna rest
We're always gunna go for more

Music is worth living for!
Music makes life worth living
Music is worth living for
Music is worth living for!
Music makes life worth living
Music is worth living for

A higher power that I can't deny
Music makes me feel so high
Like the glorious sound of God
Coming down like a lightning rod
Give me the will to love
So below and as above
The only way that I'll survive
Music makes me want to stay alive

Andrew W.K. Music Is Worth Living For Comments
  1. I.... H....

    If this doesn't play at the end of
    Bill & Ted 3 I'll be a sad boy. If there is one song to bring peace it's this one

  2. M.... ....

    I liked because I loved it

  3. a.... ....

    there is awesome music that you haven't heard yet. there is delicious food that you haven't tasted yet. There are pretty models that you haven't looked at yet... there is ALWAYS a reason keep on going, to keep looking for something better. And me, random internet stranger, believes in you. Second to second, minute by minute, day by day, keep striving. THEY want you to give up, but THEY are stupid and ugly and smelly. And sometimes you are tired, and you don't want to go on... but everything moves in circles... So tomorrow might not be better, but believe me that next week WILL have some happiness, so just hang on until then, and the week after will be a little bit better, and so on. Hang on. Keep trying. IT WILL GET BETTER. and if it doesn't, eff it. you've been worse off. stick around to pass your experience & knowledge to somebody else worse off. I, random internet stranger, have spoken. And I belive in you.

  4. c.... d....

    Andrew wk reminds me of Kevin from f is for family gone right

  5. J.... R....

    So much power in a song

  6. k.... ....

    wall of sound has never sounded more uplifting and inspirational

  7. A.... F....

    This what Shia LeBouf's "JUST DO IT!" video looks like... in Shia LeBouf's mind.

  8. M.... ....

    Guitarist with sideburns reminds me of Sid Haig

  9. N.... ....

    Fuck, you're my role model. I love your music.
    I'm gonna fuckin be like you. I let my hair grow.
    I'm gonna wear this white jeans and shirt.

    Then I only have to avoid protein to shrink my muscles a bit and then.
    IMMA BE THE FUCKIN GERMAN ANDREW W.K.

  10. C.... Y....

    I shall call this genre POSIMETAL. Rock on Andrew Who Knows.

  11. T.... B....

    This gives tenacious d vibes and I love it

  12. J.... R....

    Welp. That was way more epic than I expected. I'm not complaining, this song is awesome.

  13. w.... ....

    So im a new fan to the wk dude. What's with the picture of his first album cover popping up all the time?

    w.... ....

    It's just a iconic image for him at this point. My thought is just more of a branding thing. To take you back to 2001, the cover was very controversial when it debuted with various retailers actually covering it with black as they believed it condoned drug use lol. To make the cover, AWK first tried hitting himself with a brick in the face, but when that didn't produce enough blood, they decided to augment it with pig's blood.

    w.... ....

    @Paul O. oof.

  14. P.... C....

    I'm at Louder Than Life and I saw him yesterday he was so good and the crowd was so positive with no forced energy. One of the best lives I've seen

  15. H.... K....

    3:07. You're welcome.

    3:15 When you walk through a spider web.

  37. M.... M....

    Something is wrong. My speakers can't go loud enough for this song

  38. e.... ....

    Whenever I have to fill out religion on a form, I write down Andrew W.K.

    e.... ....

    Ive used him as a reference a few times.

  39. C.... R....

    This sounds exactly like Skillet and Dragonforce combined! Music is definitely worth living for!

  40. J.... M....

    When I'm feeling low I don't listen to this song, because I need some self care and I know I need to take a little break to calm myself down. But this is the song I need when I'm coming out of that low point to give me energy and love to start kicking ass again. This is my triumph song and I appreciate Andrew. <3 Thanks my dude <3

    Thank you for this. From the bottom of my heart...thank you, Andrew W.K.

  52. S.... G....

    How this song isn't bigger is a crime against humanity

  53. P.... ....

    Andrew and devin Townsend need to do a collaboration

  54. R.... L....

    This should have 50m views.. More people need to know this song exists!

  55. S.... ....

    This is true metal.

  56. c.... ....

    I'd watch a movie based on Andrew WK's power-ballad-neon-lit-rock-fantasy-epics.

  57. A.... H....

    To all the people going through darkness in their lives, depression, suicidal thoughts... music IS worth living for. There is light in the darkness. There are good people in the world still. Stay strong and you can get through anything!

  58. G.... V....

    I've been a metalhead since the early 80's, but when AWK popped up, i was like...this guy is putting such a huge smile on my face, that, i can't stop fucking smiling! I always liked that party-metal-mentality, for example, Tankard. They only spoke about beer and having a shit load of fun. Hey, why not?
    The foundation of rock, punk, and metal is Freedom. Freedom to be whoever you want to be. Freedom to believe in whatever you want to believe. Freedom to voice out political concerns or not. Freedom to be dark or a goofball. Freedom to give a shit or not. Rock on Andrew!

  59. g.... ....

    If you look up the word epic in the dictionary it has a link to this video.

  60. A.... S....

    Imagine if Devin Townsend and Andrew did a collaboration.? Would probably be the most epic metal ever!

  61. T.... K....

    Not a personal attack because from what I've read A.W.K. is a decent guy, but I'm sorry I stumbled upon his music and think I like the person more. This shit is hokey and I really wanted to like it.

  62. L.... S....

    This is one of my crying at 2am songs.... but in a good way.

  63. M.... G....

    I think Andrew W.K. is amazing in the sense that he brings love and positivity. He's where and what I wish I could be. If that makes any sense.

  64. a.... ....

    Glad he finally washed that shirt

  65. P.... I....

    Thank-you this made me cry

  66. v.... ....

    I'm confident if Andrew WK and Jordan Peterson fused they would be stronger than SS4 Vegeto and have the cleanest room of all time while partying harder than a million supernovas

  67. M.... M....

    I absolutely love the face he’s making at 3:07.

  68. A.... C....

    Thanks for your art Mr.W.K
    Makes me jump of my bed and squezze the world with my hands every fuckin day😎🤘😉

  69. M.... M....

    Andrew W.K. is a positive force for goodness and decency in the world. Party

  70. A.... ....

    Fuck this is wack. No wonder they play it at planet fitness.

  71. w.... ....

    Is this is the Avenger's Endgame after credit scene?

  72. T.... ....

    I don't know who the fuck that is, but she's amazing!

  73. I.... B....

    Andrew W.K single handedly blessed the rains down in Africa.
    He makes the stones roll.
    He's got the touch.
    We are not the world, rather, Andrew W.K is the world and the next 16 over.
    The eye of the tiger did not open until Andrew wished it so.


    What I am trying to say is,
    Andrew W.K is the champion who will keep on fighting until the end, for humanities health and prosperity.
    Shine on, crazy Andrew.

  74. D.... P....

    pause it at 3:07

  75. Y.... c....

    Who is the woman singing?

  76. S.... H....

    @mostlyloveofmusic if not song of the year def video of the year

  77. C.... B....

    I was 22 when lord of the rings and andrew wk appeared at that time my life was difficult and i thank god for them both

  78. K.... ....

    It feels almost religious to me; does that sound strange? And he could supply at least 10,000 homes not just 1,000 lol

  79. j.... d....

    3:07 is me before and after this song blasted me backwards through 15 neighboring walls.

  80. f.... ....

    Sounds cliché but this song pulled me out of a very dark place. So much negativity in the world just bleeds into everything. Lost a loved one to cancer, laid off, and lost my GF of 5 years all in 2 months. Still in that dark place but things like this that are packed with good emotions seem like a light that I can follow out. Andrew is a human this world needs but does not deserve. Thank you so much for being you Andrew!

    f.... ....

    Start your day with some stand-up comedians like Dry Bar. It really is medicine for the soul and helped me break out of the downward spiral many times. Keep fighting, brother.

  81. C.... B....

    Party on and be excellent to each other! Forever!

  82. D.... P....

    The party is strong with this one

  83. S.... G....

    Those keyboard tones is so fucking killer, adds that element that makes this song so great!

  84. F.... T....

    powerful!

  85. T.... D....

    Love the girls' energy.

  86. R.... D....

    Well that was just amazing

  87. P.... M....

    This is like a lighter version of Dethklok's Blazing Star. I'm happy.

  88. L.... G....

    The face he makes at 3:07 is funny as fuck imagine if he went super saiyan doing that lol

  89. S.... ....

    Who would have guessed Andrew WK would become the 21st century's most prominent optimist.

  90. W.... G....

    Andrew w k is what happens when Jesus comes back to Earth and doesn't tell anyone

  91. G.... ....

    Andrew completes me.

  92. S.... G....

    Simple lyrics, deep message. I love songs like this so much. It shows that lyrics don't have to be all cryptic and secretive to have a huge impact on the listeners. I'm so glad this song exists because whenever I feel depressed or sad, I listen to this. It reminds me why I work so hard for my dreams. Thank you for making such a deep song Andrew W.K.

  93. S.... C....

    words I live by

  94. d.... r....

    Why tf is Andrew wk the coolest mf on the planet?

  96. J.... E....

    I’m deaf..
    I guess I’ll go kill myself

  97. d.... ....

    I wish they had left it as them rocking out in front of a green screen.

  98. o.... o....

    Its like the happier version of Manowar, with synth.
