Send "Beat It" ringtones to your cell

They told him don't you ever come around here
Don't wanna 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 wanna see no blood, don't be a macho man
You wanna 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
Showin' 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

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 playin' 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
Showin' 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
Showin' 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
Showin' 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

Just beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it
No one wants to be defeated
Showin' 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
Showin' 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

Just beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it
No one wants to be defeated
Showin' 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
Showin' 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
Showin' 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
Showin' 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
Just beat it, beat it
Beat it, beat it, beat it

54 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal So how many think he's guilty of his current legal mess? I love MJ, but I do think he has a predilection for little boys--that is his perogative, but I think he is smart enough and rich enough NOT to do anything to jeopardize his career. In my personal opinion, the lawsuit is all about the money just like everything else in life! Comments?????

4,992 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal I truly havent a clue, but i do think also that it is for money, i hope he isnt guilty and if he is.. well they should be to hard on him cuz he was abused himself as child and was one troubled kid who never grew up. Anyways I love this song, one of his best, its true he was better lookin in the 80's and had better songs but his later ones are also good.

21,758 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal My all time favourite MJ song. I love the beginning bit where the synthesisers and the guitars kick in. Such a funky song. Excellent stuff. Not to mention that guitar solo always manages to rock my socks everytime I hear it * offtopic : He's innocentttttttt

15 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal Ok, so Michael has been accused molestation etc. BUT HE GOT OFF!!! Thats cos he didnt do it. I am the biggest Michael fan eva and I will admit that he isnt pretty. But if you look at him when he was a little boy and in the Jackson 5 he was gorgeous! and all through the 80's and thriller time he looked beautiful. Can anyone say that something really terrible had had to have happened to him for him to do that to himself? Really. And why is Michael famous in the first place? Cos of the way he looks and the allegations? Did all this stuff happen when he was 11 years old and had 4 no. hits in a row? Or when he released thriller, which is the BIGGEST SELLING ALBUM OF ALL TIME! No, it didnt. He is famous cos of his amazing music and UNBELIEVABLE DANCING! If you dont like Michael's music, thats fine. But if you are just dissing him cos of what he was accused of doing or what he looks like, then I think u need to look at yourself and see that Michael is an amazing person/singer/performer/musician! GO MICHAEL! I will love u forever! By the way, i'm only 18 yrs old so dont think im some old fart who is defending him cos he was cool in my day! He is the bomb! I think everyone should give him a fair go! If u dont like this song, listen to another cos he really is fantastic! Anyone feel free to contact me to discuss Michael MICHAEL ROCKS!
