I'll keep on following the scent like a driven bloodhound Be the real deal If it hurts at least I can feel An easy target without a weapon Sometimes wound too tight But I'm digging in with all my might And I'll plunge in to life head on Head on Head on Head on Head on Head on I won't roll over I won't play dead I'd rather take it from the hands of some villian instead Be the real deal Every injury is gonna heal So bring on the bite from any python Sometimes wound too tight But I won't go down without a good fight And I'll always plunge into life Head on
