lyrics
Translation:
Call me Death, for Death I am
4x
My soul is wracked by pain
My life stricken by a curse
which wound me. Oh, how it burns,
this knowledge that I am alone in this world,
so I say unto you:
Chorus
If Lord Mars (martin?) holds me in his favor,
and I love him blindly,
I may live without Fear, and for eternity, so I say:
Chorus
Refrain (repeated after every line of the son): Flee, or Death's gonna getcha!
If she can not find me a willing mate,,,
Look at those teeth, for that's where you're headed, Look at those teeth...
Yes, she's on your trail...
Run for your life, from what approaches cannot be stayed or checked...
Rest assured it can strike without warning...
Fly away, for your Luck has run out...
For your time has come...
Flee, before Death catches you
And you hear a voice which says...
"Time's up, buddy!"
RUN!!!
Don't "take your leave"...Scram! Begone!
Be gone like the wind!
She's coming, She's coming, turning the corner, no time to spare...
There's no escape. Not for you , not for anyone...
Death...She comes...She's coming...
Repentant, that's how I want to see you...
At night she will drag you by the foot...
Once she grabs a hold of you, she's not letting you go..
The scythe…the scythe will cleave your face from your skull
The Black Widow, now she bares her teeth
Look at her teeth, for that's where you're going! Can't you see her teeth?
I repeat, your time has come!
