Beat the Champ

Lyrics 

Two blinded in Detroit
 Something must be done
 Jaws dropping at ringside
 In the blood tide
 When the fireball hits
 ♪
 Down Indiana way
 Make 'em check their guns
 Real tears when it's over
 Smell the sulfur
 When the dark vault splits
 ♪
 Lord of the hidden pocket knife
 Tawdry dreams all come to life
 Save yourselves
 
 Save this town, save everything not nailed down
 ♪
 War in Ontario. Dead before the bell
 Crushed hopes of the young breed
 
 All the best bleed
 All the proud boys break
 ♪
 Who will stand before the flood?
 Who will mop up all the blood?
 Who alone?
 Skin, bone, steel, stone
 Swim or drown
 Save this town, save everything not nailed down
