You Can't Cheat Death Lyrics

You can't cheat death

You can't cheat death

Oh you may fool him once or twice

But he'll get to you yet

There's nothing you can do now

The countdown has begun

With only seconds left

Take a final breath

Now you may think that you

Might take a final stand

It won't amount to much

He's got the upper hand

You can't cheat death

You can't cheat death

Oh you may think it's worth a shot

But he ain't lost one yet

There ain't no way around it

You're gonna lose your soul

No need to stiff the reaper cuz

You're bound to pay in full

You can't cheat death

You can't cheat death

If you fool him once

Then you fool him twice

The third time you'll regret

You're just no Bill or Ted

the best there ever was

There's really no escape

I'm warning you because

You can't cheat death

You can't cheat death

Oh you may think you've got the luck

But he always collects

Try for the best of seven

Or maybe best of nine

It won't change the way it ends

You can't cheat death
