Hairspray movie - You Can't Stop The Beat lyrics
rate me<br>
TRACY<br>
You cant stop an avalanche <br>
As it races down the hill <br>
You can try to stop the seasons, girl<br>
But ya know you never will <br>
And you can try to stop my dancin' feet<br>
<br>
But i just cannot stand still <br>
Cause the world keeps spinnin'<br>
Round and round <br>
And my heart's keeping time <br>
To the speed of sound <br>
I was lost til i heard the drums <br>
Then i found my way<br>
<br>
TRACY & LINK<br>
Cause you can't stop the beat<br>
<br>
Ever since this old world began <br>
A woman found out if she shook it<br>
She could shake up a man <br>
And so i'm gonna shake and shimmy it <br>
The best that i can today<br>
<br>
'Cause you cant stop <br>
The motion of the ocean <br>
Or the sun in the sky <br>
You can wonder if you wanna <br>
But i never ask why<br>
<br>
And if you try to hold me down <br>
I'm gonna spit in your eye and say <br>
That you cant stop the beat!<br>
<br>
PENNY<br>
You can't stop a river <br>
As it rushes to the sea<br>
<br>
SEAWEED<br>
You can try and stop the hands of time<br>
But ya know it just can't be<br>
<br>
PENNY <br>
And if they try to stop us, Seaweed,<br>
I'll call the N Double A C P<br>
Cause the world keeps spinning <br>
Round and 'round<br>
And my heart's keeping time <br>
To the speed of sound <br>
I was lost til i heard the drums <br>
Then i found my way<br>
<br>
PENNY & SEAWEED<br>
Cause you can't stop the beat<br>
<br>
PENNY & SEAWEED<br>
Ever since we first saw the light<br>
A man and woman liked to shake it<br>
On a saturday night <br>
And so i'm gonna shake and shimmy it <br>
With all my might today<br>
<br>
'Cause you cant stop <br>
The motion of the ocean <br>
Or the rain from above <br>
You can try to stop the paradise<br>
We're dreamin' of<br>
But you cannot stop the rhythm <br>
Of two hearts in love to stay <br>
Cause you cant stop the beat!<br>
<br>
EDNA<br>
You cant stop my happiness <br>
Cause i like the way i am <br>
And you just can't stop my knife and fork <br>
When i see a christmas ham <br>
so if you don't like the way i look <br>
Well, i |ust don't give a damn!<br>
<br>
EDNA & ENSEMBLE<br>
Cause the world keeps spinning<br>
Round and 'round <br>
And my heart's keeping time <br>
To the speed of sound <br>
I was lost til i heard the drums <br>
Then i found my way<br>
<br>
EDNA & COMPANY<br>
'Cause you cant stop the beat<br>
<br>
Ever since this old world began <br>
A woman found out if she shook it<br>
She could shake up a man <br>
And so i'm gonna shake and shimmy it <br>
The best that i can today<br>
<br>
Cause you cant stop<br>
The motion of the ocean<br>
Or the sun in the sky<br>
You can wonder if you wanna<br>
But i never ask why<br>
And if you try to hold me down <br>
I'm gonna spit in your eye and say <br>
That you cant stop the beat!<br>
<br>
<br>
MOTORMOUTH<br>
Oh oh oh<br>
You can't stop today<br>
As it comes speeding down the track<br>
Child, yesterday is hist'ry<br>
And it's never coming back<br>
<br>
MOTORMOUTH & ENSEMBLE<br>
'Cause tomorrow is a brand new day<br>
<br>
MOTORMOUTH<br>
And it don't know white from black<br>
<br>
ENSEMBLE<br>
Yeah!<br>
<br>
MOTORMOUTH & ENSEMBLE <br>
'Cause the world keeps spinning<br>
'Round and 'round <br>
And my heart's keeping time <br>
To the speed of sound <br>
I was lost til i heard the drums <br>
Then i found my way <br>
'Cause you cant stop the beat<br>
<br>
ALL<br>
Ever since we first saw the light <br>
A man and woman liked to shake it<br>
On a saturday night <br>
And so i'm gonna shake and shimmy it <br>
With all my might today<br>
'Cause you can't stop <br>
The motion of the ocean <br>
Or the rain from above <br>
They can try to stop ths paradise<br>
We're dreaming of <br>
But you cannot stop the rhythm<br>
Of two hearts in love to stay <br>
You can't stop the beat!<br>
<br>
Aah, aah, aah <br>
Aah, aah, aah <br>
Aah, aah, aah<br>
<br>
ALL<br>
Ever since we first saw the sun <br>
A man and woman like to shake it when the day is done<br>
But we're gonna shake and shimmy it <br>
And have some fun <br>
For today!<br>
<br>
ALL<br>
Cause you can't stop <br>
The motion of the ocean <br>
Or the rain from above<br>
You can try to stop the paradise<br>
We're dreaming of <br>
But you cannot stop the rhythm<br>
Of two hearts in love to stay <br>
'Cause you can't stop the beat!<br>
You can't stop the beat!! <br>
You can't stop the beat!!<br>
You can't stop the beat!! <br>
You can't stop the beat!!<br>
