Verse 1
They told him Don't you
ever come around here
Don't wanna see your face
You better disappear?
The fires in their eyes and
their words are really clear
So beat it Just beat it
You better run
You better do what you can
Don't wanna see no blood
Don't be a macho man
You wanna though
Better do what you can
So beat it
But you wanna be bad
Chorus 1
Do Intro Part 2 for Guitar 2
Just beat (beat it)
Beat it (Beat it)
No one wants to be defeated
Showing how funky and
strong is your fight
It doesn't matter
who's wrong or right
Just beat it
Just beat it
Just beat it
Just beat it
Verse 2
They're out to get you
Better leave while you can
Don't wanna be a boy
You wanna be a man
You wanna stay alive
Better do what you can
So beat it Just beat it
You have to show them
that you're really not scared
You're playing with your life
This ain't no truth or dare
They'll kick you then they beat you
then they'll tell you its fair
So beat it
But you wanna be bad
(Repeat Chorus)
