The Beat
We're all going on a summer holidayVigilantes coming out to follow meHeard somebody say they're out to collar meAnybody want to swallow me?It takes two to tumble, it takes two to tangoSpeak up--don't mumble if you're in the comboOn the beat, on the beatTill a man comes along and he says"Have you been a good boy, never played with your toy?Though you never enjoy, such pleasure to employ"See your friends in the state they're inSee your friends getting under their skinSee your friends getting taken inWell, if you only knew the things you do to meI'd do anything to confuse the enemyThere's only one thing wrong with you befriending meTake it easy, I think you're bending meI've been a bad boy with the standard leaderMy neighbor's revving up his Vauxhall VivaOn the beat, on the upbeatTill a man comes along and he says"Have you been a good boy, never played with your toy?Though you never enjoy, such pleasure to employ"See your friends walking down the streetSee your friends never quite completeLetras de cancionesSee your friends getting under their feetOh, I don't want to disease you, but I'm no good with machineryOh, I don't want to freeze you, stop looking at the sceneryI keep thinking about your mother, oh, I don't want to lick themI don't want to be a lover, I just want to be your victimI don't go out much at night, I don't go out much at allDid you think you were the only one who was waiting for a call?On the beat, on the upbeatTill a man comes along and he says"Have you been a good boy, never played with your toy?Though you never enjoy, such pleasure to employ"See your friends treat me like a strangerSee your friends despite all the arrangementsSee your friends, nothing here has changedJust the beatJust the beat From Letras Mania
