He only thought he was going for the thrill of a rideWasn’t in the plan to be gone for longBut he keeps looking back over his shoulderHe knows that something might go wrongThe ride it ain’t smooth that is for sureStrange mood what is the cureHe’s got that feeling of impending doomLike being trapped in a casket inside a tombDeath defied by willLike a drug that doesn’t killBoy you gotta learn what’s trueDeath defied by willLike a drug that doesn’t killThe joke is on youYou ought to know betterYou ought to know betterHe is determined to outsmart this snakeWith conviction he will stand his groundFeeling invincible like death itselfHis immortality won’t be foundWhat should he say at his own wakeThat he refuses to fulfil his fateHe doesn’t know that this is his last driveOn the road we call aliveDeath defied by willLike a drug that doesn’t killBoy you gotta learn what’s trueDeath defied by willLike a drug that doesn’t killNow the joke is on youNow the time has comeYou can’t play aroundAnd you ought to knowYou ought to know betterYou ought to know betterDeath defied by willLike a drug that doesn’t killBoy you gotta learn what’s trueDeath defied by willLike a drug that doesn’t killNow the joke is on you
