Lyrics

Blitzkrieg Bop [It's Alive]

[Intro]

Hey, ho, let's go

Hey, ho, let's go

Hey, ho, let's go

Hey, ho, let's go

[Verse]

They're formin' in a straight line

They're goin' through a tight wind

The kids are losin' their minds

The Blitzkrieg Bop

They're pilin' in the back seat

They're generatin' steam heat

Pulsatin' to the back beat

The Blitzkrieg Bop

[Chorus]

Hey, ho, let's go

Shoot 'em in the back now

What they want, I don't know

They're all revved up and ready to go

[Verse]

They're formin' in a straight line

They're goin' through a tight wind

The kids are losin' their minds

The Blitzkrieg Bop

They're pilin' in the back seat

They're generatin' steam heat

Pulsatin' to the back beat

The Blitzkrieg Bop

[Chorus]

Hey, ho, let's go

Shoot 'em in the back now

What they want, I don't know

They're all revved up and ready to go

[Verse]

They're formin' in a straight line

They're goin' through a tight wind

The kids are losin' their minds

The Blitzkrieg Bop

They're pilin' in the back seat

They're generatin' steam heat

Pulsatin' to the back beat

The Blitzkrieg Bop

[Outro]

Hey, ho, let's go

Hey, ho, let's go

Hey, ho, let's go

Hey, ho, let's go
