In 1916,
he took a bullet to the head.
They all thought that he was dead,
but he surprised them.
In 1981, I withstood similar attack.
I got hit, but I came back,
and it keeps happening.
I'm like Rasputin, I get back up again
Like Rasputin, I keep comin' back,
comin' back, comin' back to life
In robes and copped at crosses
Took his chances, cut his losses
He was evil, so they tried to put him down
I had many skirts and lashes
Love reduced this girl to ashes
Think I'm done, I'm not done
Time for one more, go around
I'm like Rasputin, I get back up again
Like Rasputin, I keep coming back,
coming back, coming back to life
He gave some folks hope,
others wanted him to choke
So they poisoned him
and shoved him in a lake
I've had lovers and detractors,
but my one governing factor
Is there's nothing they throw at me
that I can't take
If I'm like Rasputin, I get back up again
Like Rasputin, I keep coming back,
coming back,
coming back to life
This world's a messed up place
Our favorite act, the fall from grace
Resurrection, isn't it a myth?
When I think I've had enough
Born too late to be so tough
My need for love sees me,
asks me, you coming with?
Like Rasputin, I get back up again
I'm like Rasputin, I keep coming back,
coming back, coming back to life
Like Rasputin, I get back up again
Like Rasputin, I keep comin' back,
comin' back, comin' back to life
Comin' back, comin' back,
comin' back to life
