[IRON MAIDEN cover]



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 who's to go

No point asking what's the game, no point asking who's to blame

'Cos if you're gonna die, if you're gonna die, if you're gonna die 



If you're gonna die, die with your boots on,

If you're gonna try, well stick around

Gonna cry, just move along

If you're gonna die, you're gonna die

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 



No point asking when it is, no point asking who's to go

No point asking what's the game



If you're gonna die, die with your boots on

If you're gonna try, well stick around

Gonna cry, just move along

If you're gonna die, you're gonna die, gonna die

Die with your boots on, if you're gonna try

well stick around, gonna cry, just move along

If you're gonna die, you're gonna die



No point asking when it is, no point asking who's to go

No point asking what's the game, no point asking who's to blame

'Cos if you're gonna die, if you're gonna die, if you're gonna die 



If you're gonna die, die with your boots on

If you're gonna try, well stick around

Gonna cry, just move along

If you're gonna die, you're gonna die, gonna die

Die with your boots on, if you're gonna try,

well stick around, gonna cry, just move along

If you're gonna die



If you're gonna die, die with your boots on

If you're gonna try, well stick around

Gonna cry, just move along

If you're gonna die, you're gonna die
