Why is a paralyzing agent used in lethal injection?

So I can understand a drug to knock a person out and then a drug to kill them, but then why a drug in-between to also paralyze them?

My issue with the death penalty is that money buys freedom, there are evil persons and deserve the death penalty. Using lethal injection, a paralyzing agent to stop the victim from flailing about in muscle convulsions cause by the drugs to end life. Perhaps a better way or better drugs?
