|
Again you announce while you whirl and bounce |
|
Intentions to pounce on the beat menace |
|
No woman or man could ever withstand |
|
The devious plans of the beat menace |
|
Come to lay you low, we've come to vex your soul |
|
Feeling the heat, hell at your feet |
|
Don't even speak of the beat menace |
|
Something to take away your innocence |
|
Someone to blame it on |
|
Helps you to defeat |
|
Dancing in the street |
|
Come to lay you low, we've come to vex you |
|
Resolved in your mind- the nature of crime |
|
Is to swallow the line of the beat menace |
|
Imagination's on the rise again |
|
So hide your heart away |
|
Dust off the fears and guilts and lies again |
|
The beat is here to stay |
|
Your satellite can reach that Eskimo |
|
He buys a suit and tie |
|
Re-styles his hair like girls in Tupelo |
|
And sings "Sweet Bye And Bye" |
|
He's meeting all your strange requirements |
|
He thinks you can't be fooled |
|
He'll get the rules and laws and sacraments |
|
By sending checks to you |
|
We've come to bring you low |
