THE BEAT

THE BEAT

Feeling the beat deep in your gut
Lyrics don’t cause that reaction
Rhythm is all, and nothing but
Melody is a distraction

Four-four time is so insistent
Strong weak, medium weak action
The brain cannot stay resistant
Melody is a distraction

The heart rate picking up the pace
Soon the beat is gaining traction
Only sensing the drum and bass
Melody is a distraction

Feeling the beat deep in your gut
Melody is a distraction
