elvis costello – the beat [live, el mocambo 1978] كلمات اغاني
this is called “the beat”
[verse 1]
we’re all going on a summer holiday
vigilantes coming out to follow me
heard somebody say they’re out to collar me
anybody want to swallow me?
[pre_chorus]
it takes two to tumble, it takes two to tango
speak up, don’t mumble if you’re in the combo
[chorus]
on the beat
on the beat
’til the man comes along and says
“have you been a good boy
never played with your toy?
though you never enjoy
such a pleasure to employ”
[post_chorus]
see your friends in the state they’re in
see your friends getting under their skin
see your friends getting taken in
[verse 2]
well, if you only knew the things you do to me
i’d do anything to confuse the enemy
there’s only one thing wrong with you befriendin’ me
take it easy, i think you’re bendin’ me
[pre_chorus]
i’ve been a bad boy with the standard leader
my neighbor’s revving up his vauxhall viva
[chorus]
on the beat
on the upbeat
’til the man comes along and he says
“have you been a good boy
never played with your toy?
though you never enjoy
such a pleasure to employ”
[post_chorus]
see your friends walking down the street
see your friends never quite complete
see your friends getting under their feet
[bridge]
oh, i don’t want to disease you
but i’m no good with machinery
oh, i don’t want to freeze you
stop looking at the scenery
i keep thinking about your mother
oh, i don’t want to l!ck them
i don’t want to be a lover
i just want to be your victim
i don’t go out much at night
i don’t go out much at all
did you think you were the only one
who was waiting for a call?
[chorus]
on the beat
on the beat
on the upbeat
’til the man comes along and he says
“have you been a good boy
never played with your toy?
though you never enjoy
such a pleasure to employ.”
[post_chorus]
see your friends treat me like a stranger
see your friends despite all the arrangements
see your friends, nothing here has changed
[outro]
just the beat
just the beat
just the beat
