10 Absolutely RIDICULOUS Wrestling Theme Lyrics

3. Billy Kidman - You Can Run

Which adjective is ideally used to describe a pro wrestling theme tune?

Powerful?

Rousing?

...Rapey?

You would think not, but it is impossible to disassociate the lyrics, the lyrics to a pro wrestling theme song, from the most reprehensible act a human being is capable of.

This hip-hop menacer broods in its introductory clash of drums and ominous synths. "You can run if you want to..." are the first lyrics heard, cruelly promising the victim a chance of survival. "...but you can't hide," the rapper follows up. This is fair. Billy Kidman is a fighting babyface, and he is simply advising his opponents that, look. You can taunt me backstage, you can drag my name in promos, but when I get you in that ring...

...I am going to sexually assault you.

"Keep actin' though, it's gonna get creepy."

What?

Does he mean "scary", using a weird synonym to shoehorn in a rhyme?

"All of a sudden, you're startin' to feel sleepy..."

Don't be alarmed. This is more clumsy than problematic. Those Rohypnol vibes are incidental; he is referring to a chinlock.

"But in these streets, when you doze off, you wake up wit'cha clothes off, ashamed, feelin' lost..."

Right, that settles it: Billy Kidman laces his rivals' drinks with incapacitating agents before committing major crimes on TV.

Should have called him Mickey Kidman.
