Death Defied — текст песни (Eagle Eye Cherry)

He only thought he was going for the thrill of a ride

Wasnt in the play to be gone for long

But he keeps looking back over his shoulder

He knows that something might go wrong

The ride it aint smooth that is for sure

Strange mood what is the cure

Hes got that feeling of impending doom

Like being trapped in a casket inside a tomb



Chorus:

Death defied by will

Like a drug that doesnt kill

Boy you gotta learn whats true

Death defied by will

Like a drug that doesnt kill

The joke is on you

You ought to know better

You ought to know better



He is determined to outsmart this snake

With conviction he will stand his ground

Feeling invincible like death itself

But his immortality wont be found

What should he say at his own wake

That he refuses to fulfill his fate

He doesnt know that this is his last drive

On the road we call alive



Chorus



Now the time has come

You cant play around

And you ought to know

You ought to know better

You ought to know better



Chorus
