Ooh, I'm a lover not a fighter Baby, don't you forget it now Ooh, don't want no trouble But keep pushing it and baby, you'll get it now Knife fight Do you wanna come step to me Like in Beat It 1983? Build me up just to cut me down Do I run or do I hold my ground? Ground, ground You show your age Flashing blades over things you don't understand You keep drawing blood Like a flood from some biblical promised land Knife fight Do you wanna come step to me Like in Beat It 1983? Build me up just to cut me down Do I run or do I hold my ground? Ground, ground You act so tough, it's a bluff You're a trembling little girl You just wanna show that you know How to hang in this grown up world Knife fight Do you wanna come step to me Like in Beat It 1983? Build me up just to cut me down Cut me down like I'm your little clown Yes, I know where this is headed tonight No way out except another knife fight Fight, fight No way out except another knife fight Fight, fight No way out except another knife fight Fight, fight No way out except another knife fight Fight, fight
