DEATH

Ungh

I’m so tired,

Death came a knockin at my front door
You know I laid asleep, I ain’t up til four
Cause on my day off, I don’t hear nobody callin
I’m not like the others, who only try and stall he
Came a knock, knock, knockin at my front door
Then he went around back and tried some more
I couldn’t fuckin take it for another god damn minute
So I got myself up and I got down to it

Yeah that’s right
I was a little bummed out
I wasn’t thinking of killing myself or anything
jeez


Well I let him in and he sat right down
I started into chatting but he wouldn’t make a sound
I had to think of something,I couldn’t go yet
So I asked him if he’d like to make a little bet
He finally spoke and I thought I saw him smile
I think he took my bet just a little too mild
We played a little game of nintendo vision
I let him go first it was my best decision

Yeah that’s right,
some would say I’m playin with my life
But I ain’t ready to go
Heck (Cause)0 I got stuff to do

I love the life
That I choose to live
The pleasure the pain is mine

Playin with death, now that was rad
I didn’t want to die and it made him feel glad
He took another bong hit, he said with a groan
Hey I’m overworked why don’t you leave me alone
So I made it quick and won the game
I didn’t break a sweat because he played kind of lame
I offered him a beer, and he said thank you,
the last thing I said was don’t call me I’ll call you

hhhaaaaa
Laughin in the face of death
Add a little spice, a little zest to your life
You’ll appreciate things more
