So sad they like this new beat.
Their feet don’t dance
on nothing else no more.
So sad they like this new beat.
Their feet don’t dance
on nothing else no more.

A six-o-six hihat tss tss tss,
a sample bass drum from Mars, 
a sixteen bit. They’ve got James Brown get on up
they’ve got Dennis Edwards and further more
I don’t wanna criticize but my oh my
you’ve got to quantize.
And maybe in a year or two
I will change my point of view.

Delete this beat in step, 
time complete, 
load that disc, save your song
when lost there’s none.
Ole time religion
will do when the world’s on fire.
Wave your hand, express yourself
to an inner force which you can’t resist.
And maybe in a year or two
I will change my point of view.
