I didn't see it comin'
creepin' up from behind
I was almost swallowed whole
by the thrill of the fight

it wasn't for the money
and it wasn't just for fun
I wanted to make a mark
I just wanted to be some one

I heard the devil whisper in my ear (uh huh)
he made his message clear
when he said:

Sweep the leg (Johnny) (x3)

oh good god now you gotta believe me

It never really mattered
I was always under control
Monkey hear, monkey think
there is no fear in this dojo

I was a super hero
king of 1985
I showed no mercy
I was always Cobra Kai

but I caught a crane kick to the face (uh huh)
I guess he sealed my fate when he said:

Sweep the leg (Johnny) (x3)

oh good god now you gotta believe me
good god you gotta believe me
good god, good god
oh, good god now you gotta believe me (x3)

I heard the devil whisper in my ear
He made his message clear when he said:

Sweep the leg (Johnny) (x3)

Ooh Ooh

Sweep the leg (Johnny) (x3)

good god now you gotta believe me

Sweep the leg (johnny)
Sweep the leg
Sweep the leg (johnny, johnny)

good god you gotta believe, you got to believe me
you got to believe me
