Beat It (Single Version) Lyrics

by Michael Jackson

The Essential Michael Jackson · 1982 · English

Beat It (Single Version) lyrics

They told him, "Don't you ever come around here

Don't want to see your face, you better disappear"

The fire's 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 want to see no blood

Don't be a macho man (woo)

You want to be tough, better do what you can

So beat it, but you wanna be bad

Just beat it (beat it), beat it (beat it)

No one wants to be defeated

Showing how funky strong is your fight

It doesn't matter who's wrong or right

Just beat it (beat it)

Just beat it (beat it)

Just beat it (beat it)

Just beat it (beat it), ooh

They're out to get you

Better leave while you can

Don't want to be a boy, you want to be a man

You want to 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 it's fair

So, beat it, but you wanna be bad

Just beat it (beat it), beat it (beat it)

No one wants to be defeated

Showing how funky strong is your fight

It doesn't matter who's wrong or right

Beat it (beat it), beat it (beat it)

No one wants to be defeated

Showing how funky strong is your fight

It doesn't matter who's wrong or right

Just beat it (beat it), beat it (beat it)

Beat it (beat it), beat it (beat it)

Beat it (beat it), beat it (beat it)

No one wants to be defeated

Showing how funky strong is your fight

It doesn't matter who's wrong or right

Just beat it (beat it), beat it (beat it)

No one wants to be defeated

Showing how funky strong is your fight

It doesn't matter who's wrong or right

Just beat it (beat it), beat it (beat it)

No one wants to be defeated (oh, no)

Showing how funky strong is your fight

It doesn't matter who's wrong or right

Just beat it (beat it), beat it (beat it)

No one wants to be defeated

Showing how funky strong is your fight

It doesn't matter who's wrong or right

Just beat it
