Knock 'Em Dead, Kid (Live, 3/14/84)

[Spoken Word Intro]

You ready to knock 'em dead tonight?

[Intro]

Well, right

[Verse 1]

Well, in the heat of the night

Went and blackened my eyes

I'm back, I'm back, I'm back

Might be coming your way

Well, I'm supercharged

Might explode in your face

Well, I'm black, I'm black, I'm black

Primed for hate

You with me now?

[Chorus]

Knock 'em dead, kid

Knock 'em dead

Uh-huh, knock 'em dead, kid

Knock 'em dead

Well, its a TKO

The blood is red, kid

Knock 'em dead

Well, knock 'em dead, kid

Knock 'em dead

[Verse 2]

A star-spangled fight

I heard a steel-belted scream (*police sirens*)

Black, I'm black, I'm black

Another [?] bloody dream

Heard the sirens whine, oh no

My blood turned to freeze

Now see the red in my eyes

You're gonna take my disease

You with me now?

[Chorus]

Knock 'em dead, kid

Knock 'em dead

Well, 'em dead, kid

Knock 'em dead

Whoa, yeah

The blade is red, kid

Knock 'em dead

Well, knock 'em dead, kid

Knock 'em dead

Here we go

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]

Well, now

Knock 'em dead, kid

Knock 'em dead

Well, knock 'em dead, kid

Knock 'em dead, whoa-ho-ho

Well, it's a fight to the edge

The blood is red, kid

(Knock 'em dead)

Well, knock 'em dead, kid

Knock 'em dead

[Outro]

Knock 'em, knock 'em, knock 'em

Dead

Dead

Dead

I said, knock 'em, boy

Dead, kid
