Death Defied By Will |
He only thought he was going for the thrill of a ride |
Wasn’t in the plan to be gone for long |
But he keeps looking back over his shoulder, yeah |
He knows that something might go wrong |
The ride it ain’t smooth that is for sure |
Strange mood what is the cure |
He’s got that feeling of impending doom |
Like being trapped in a casket inside a tomb, oh |
Death defied by will |
Like a drug that doesn’t kill |
Boy you gotta learn what’s true |
Death defied by will |
Like a drug that doesn’t kill |
Oh, the joke is on you |
You ought to know better |
You ought to know better |
Now, he is determined to outsmart this snake |
With conviction he will stand his ground |
Feeling invincible like death itself |
But his immortality won’t be found |
What should he say at his own wake |
That he refuses to fulfil his fate |
He doesn’t know that this is his last drive |
On the road we call alive |
Death defied by will |
Like a drug that doesn’t kill |
Boy you gotta learn what’s true |
Death defied by will |
Like a drug that doesn’t kill |
Now the joke is on you |
Now the time has come |
You can’t play around, and you ought to know |
You ought to know better |
You ought to know better |
Death defied by will |
Like a drug that doesn’t kill |
Boy you gotta learn what’s true |
Death defied by will |
Like a drug that doesn’t kill |
Now the joke is on you |
You ought to know better |
You ought to know better |
Ala-la-la-la-laa |
Death defied by will |
Like a drug that doesn’t kill |
Boy you gotta learn what’s true |
Death defied by will |
Like a drug that doesn’t kill |
Now the joke is on, the joke is on you |
(You ought to know better) |
Oh, joke is on you |
(You ought to know better) |
Oh, the joke is on you |
(You ought to know better) |
Ought to know better, yeah |
(You ought to know better, better, joke is on you) |
You ought to know better |
