Oh Death
you son of a bitch
come on bastard
scratch that itch!

come on Death
give me a shot
come on Death
find my Spot

dig me a grave
don't try
my Soul to save
hell, i never gave
a hoot
so come on Death
let me shoot

Oh Death
what's your game
ain't it a shame
so who's to blame
aren't we all the same

come on Death
send me away
who give's a shit
i don't pray
so Death get with it
come on Death
let's play

i been shot
i been hot
i been tied in a knot
i still know not
what
i be here for
or
what's out your door

i tried
i cried
but i'm tired
i'm wired
wish
to heaven or to hell
i died
who can tell

so

come on Death
give it your best
come on Death
give me some rest

come on Death
i passed The Test
