Songtext The beat goes on Firewater

The beat goes on

And the beat goes on, and the beat goes on
Drums keep pounding rhythm to the brain
La de da de de, la de da de da
(Here we go)

Rich still keep it to themselves, uh huh
History repeats itself, uh huh
Mini skirts the current thing, uh huh
Teenyboppers the newborn king, uh huh

And the beat goes on (on)
Drums keep pounding rhythm to the brain
La de da de de, la de da de da

Everything still falls apart, uh huh
And the young girls still go breaking hearts, uh huh
And men still keep on marching off to war
'Cause peace and understanding's such a bore

And the beat goes, and the beat goes
And the beat goes on, and the beat goes on
And the beat goes on
(I'm not sure where to come in here)
(Go ahead)
(Oh, now?)

Drums keep pounding rhythm to the brain
La de da de de, la de da de da

Well the rock band's a business man today
Oh this land isn't my land anyway
And the world keeps spinning faster all the time
But somehow we still have to wait in line

And the beat goes, and the beat goes on
And the beat goes, and the beat goes on
And the beat goes on
