iron maiden - die with your boots on
yeah,another prophet of disaster
who says the ship is lost,
another prophet of disater
leaving you to count the cost.
taunting us with visions,
afflicting us with fear,
predicting war for millions,
in the hope that one appears.
no point asking when it is,
no point asking whos to go,
no point asking whats the game,
no point asking whos to blame.
cos if youre gonna die, if youre gonna die,
cos if youre gonna die, if youre gonna die,
if youre gonna die, die with your boots on,
if youre gonna try, just stick around,
gonna cry, just move along,
if youre gonna die, youre gonna die.
in 13 the beast is rising,
the frenchmen did surmise,
through earthquakes and starvation,
the warlord will arise.
terror, death, destruction,
pour from the eastern sands,
but the truth of all predictions,
is always in your hands.
they die, with their boots on
yes they die
they die, they die, with their boots
we die.. we die.. we.die
we die, we die, we die
if youre gonna die, die with your boots on,
if youre gonna try, just stick around,
gonna cry, just move along,
if youre gonna die, youre gonna die.
