Lost In The Beat

Lost In The Beat

By Paul McCann

They don’t listen to the words anymore

all they hear is the beat .

They don’t want songs with meaning no more

they only want to listen to the beat .

Bum bum bum , what’s that sound ,

the place is shaking down ,

shout it out .shout it out

can’t you hear , what the song is all about

Lost in the beat going boom boom boom ,

turn up the volume , get some noise in the room ,

there’s no music its just a blast on your ear ,

slowly going deaf around here .

I remember the songs we used to play

Hey , they always had so much to say

they don’t want songs with feeling now

they only want to hear the beat .

Bum bum bum , what’s that sound ,

the place is shaking down ,

shout it out .shout it out

can’t you hear , what the song is all about

Lost in the beat going boom boom boom ,

turn up the volume , get some noise in the room ,

there’s no music its just a blast on your ear ,

slowly going deaf around here .

The lyrics were drowned iand the beat was found

Niw its taken over the town .

Melodies now can’t be found ,

they only want a beat in the sound .

Bum bum bum , what’s that sound ,

the place is shaking down ,

shout it out .shout it out

can’t you hear , what the song is all about

Lost in the beat going boom boom boom ,

turn up the volume , get some noise in the room ,

there’s no music its just a blast on your ear ,

slowly going deaf around here .
