Dead on Arrival Songtext
von Grim Reaper

Yeah, oh-ooh, oh, yeah
Dead on arrival

I′ll tell you a tale about someone I know
Now he's gone, there′s nothing to show
Made the headlines for the one time
A burst, a shadow, and in this way he died

Dead on arrival, there's no hope in hell
Dead on arrival, how come they tell?
Dead on arrival, ain't it a shame?
Dead on arrival, it′ll never be the same, oh, yeah
Dead on arrival

Live your life to the full, never see shame
Speeding on the motorway, the next one that came
Dead in an instant, watch out real good
Bleeding everything, ain′t gonna look good


Dead on arrival, there's no hope in hell
Dead on arrival, how come they tell?
Dead on arrival, ain′t it a shame?
Dead on arrival, it'll never be the same, oh, yeah
Dead on arrival
Dead on arrival
D.O.A

Dead on arrival, there′s no hope in hell
Dead on arrival, how come they tell?
Dead on arrival, now, ain't it a shame?
Dead on arrival, we′ll never be the same, oh, yeah
Dead on arrival

So I pick up the paper, read it once more
I turn all white again, I guess I's makin' sure
And so, with tear-filled eyes, I look to the skies
I′m standing at the graveside to say my last goodbyes

Dead on arrival, there′s no hope in Hell
Dead on arrival, how come they tell?
Dead on arrival, ain't it a shame?
Dead on arrival, we′ll never be the same

Dead on arrival, there's no hope in Hell
Dead on arrival, how come they tell?
Dead on arrival, now ain′t it a shame?
Dead on arrival, D.O.A
