"The Beat" lyrics - IMA ROBOT

Julie's clockin' out at the station
Hurry up and get your pay
A two day vacation - Friday Saturday
Down in the basement
You can shower up in the sink
Throw on some lipstick
And look Pretty in Pink

Short skirts in the cold
To the club - where the night is waiting
Getting closer you feel it shakin'
On the dance floor

This is the beat the beat we fight to
This is the beat we live and die to
Here's to the kids they're getting off
We work all week to sweat it off
This is the beat to beat the pressure
Throwing away the world with pleasure
We're working hard to burn it off
So DJ won't you turn it up

Jimmy's doin shots at the counter
Thinkin' bout his great escape
From his stupid job telemarketing
But he never can sail away
A little tap on the shoulder
The prettiest girl in pink
Oh no I can't dance he told her
As she dragged him from his drink

Freeze frame in the heat
She moves and he's close to shaking
So close that the ground is breaking
On the dance floor

This is the beat the beat we fight to
This is the beat we live and die to
Here's to the kids they're getting off
We work all week to sweat it off
This is the beat to beat the pressure
Throwing away the world with pleasure
We're working hard to burn it off
So DJ won't you turn it up

And we could beat for city boys
And suburb girls that dream
Just like the kids with Chinese Rocks
Beat bleeding hearts for me
Thank you boys
Make some noise - Make some noise

This is the beat the beat we fight to
This is the beat we get high to
Here's to the kids they're getting off
We work all week to sweat it off
This is the beat to beat the pressure
Throwing away the world with pleasure
We're working hard to burn it off
So DJ won't you turn it up
