Hairspray - You Can't Stop The Beat lyrics

rate me

You can't stop an avalanche as it races down the hill

You can try to stop the seasons, girl, but you know you never will

And you can try to stop my dancing feet, but I just cannot stand still!

'Cause the world keeps spinnin' round and round

And my heart's keepin' time to the speed of the sound

I was lost 'til I heard the drums, then I found my way

'Cause you can't stop the beat

Ever since this whole world began

A woman found out if she shook it, she could shake up a man

And so I'm gonna shake and shimmy it the best that i can today

'Cause you can't stop the motion of the ocean or the sun in the sky

You can wonder, if you wanna, but I'll never ask why

And if you try and hold me down I'm gonna spit in your eye and say

That You Can't Stop the Beat!

Tracy: Whaddya have to say, Penny?

Penny: I am now a checkerboard Chick!

You can't stop the river as it rushes to the sea

You can try to stop the hands of time, but you know it just won't be!

And if they try to stop us, Seaweed, I've got the N double A.C.P.

Cause the world keeps spinnin round and round

And my heart's keepin time to the speed of sound

I was lost 'til I heard the drums, then I found my way

Cause you cant stop the beat!

Ever since we first saw the light

A man and woman like to shake it on a Saturday night

and so I'm gonna shake and shimmy it with all of my might today

Cause you cant stop the motion of the ocean, or the rain from above

you can try to stop the paradise were dreamin of

But you cannot stop the rhythm of two hearts in love to stay

Cause you cant stop the beat!

Edna: Tracy, I have a little something to add if you don't mind

You can't stop my happiness, cause I like the way I am

And you just can't stop my knife and fork when I see a Christmas Ham!

And if you don't like the way I look, well, I just dont give a damn!

Cause the world keeps spinnin' round and round

and my hearts keepin time to the speed of sound

I was lost 'til I heard the drums, then I found my way

Cause you can't stop the beat

Ever since this whole world began

A woman found out if she shook it she could shake up a man

and so I'm gonna shake and shimmy it the best that I can today!

Cause you can't stop the motion of the ocean or the sun in the sky

You can wonder, if you wanna, but I'll never ask why

And if you try and hold me down, I'm gonna spit in your eye and say

That you can't stop the beat!

Edna: Wilbur, be a dear. Fetch some oxygen...now!!

Seaweeds Mom: Step aside, Miss. Buttercup! It's time to wrack this bubba up!

Oh, Oh, Oh

You can't stop today [No!]

As it comes speeding 'round the track [oooh, child yes!]

Yesterday is history [be gone!]

And it's never comin back! [Look ahead, cause...]

Tomorrow is a brand new day, and it don't know white from black [YEAH!]

'Cause the world keeps spinnin' round and round

And my heart's keepin time to the speed of sound

I was lost til I heard the drums, then I found my way

'Cause you cant stop the beat!

Ever since we first saw the light,

A man and woman like to shake it on a Saturday night

So I'm gonna shake and shimmy it with all of my might today!

Cause you cant stop the motion of the ocean, or the rain from above

They can try to stop the paradise we're dreamin of

But you cannot stop the rhythm of two hearts in love to stay

You can't stop the beat!

Aah, aah, aah,

Ahh, ahh, ahh

Ahh, ahh, ahh ahh

Come on you Vantussles go and shake your fanny muscles!!

We can't!

Yes you can!

No we can't!

Yes you can!

Yes we can!

You cant stop the beat!

Ever since we first saw the sign

It seems Vantussle girls are always tryin to be someone

But now we're gonna shake and shimmy it and have some fun today!

Cause you can't stop the Motion of the ocean or the rain from above

You can try to stop the paradise were dreamin of

But you cannot stop the rhythm of two hearts in love to stay!

You cant stop the beat!

You cant stop the beat

You cant stop the beat

You cant stop the beat!!

NEW SONG only on original album cd

Blood on the pavement, what a mess!

"Is that your eyeball on my dress?"

Don't drink and drive, please keep your head,

"Or come graduation day, you'll be dead!"

Hands on the wheel, though I know its a drag

I'd hate to see that body in a body bag!

"Kids listen up, 'cause I'm a mom"

Yes, blood on the pavement will ruin your prom!
