Another prophet of disaster Who says the ship is lost Another prophet of disaster 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 frenchman 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 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
