lyrics

Well you could shoot it, stab it, it will not die
The only way to kill, give it up
Or you can kick it, punch it, it will not die
The only way to kill it is to give it up
You can push it, shove it, it will not fall
The only way to kill it is to give it up
And you can fight it, smash it, it will not crawl
The only way to kill it is to give it up

You can punch it, fight it, it will not move
You've got to, got to give it up
And you can hit it, crush it 'n' it will only prove
The only way to kill it is to give it up
You know you've got to give it up, turn it loose
Give it up 'cause it ain't no use
Give it up, gonna knock you down
Give it up, put you in the ground

You've got to give it up
It's no good
And give it up
You know you should
Give it up
Gonna knock you dead
Give it up
And gonna wreck your head
You've got to give it up
Turn it loose
Give it up
It ain't no use
Give it up
Gonna knock you down
Give it up
And leave you on the ground
You've got to punch it (give it up) and kick it
It will not die
The only way to (give it up) kill it is to give it up
And you can kick it (give it up) stab it, it will not die
The only way to (give it up) kill it is to give it up
You know you've got to give it up
