Rhythm of the Beat
 
(Rick Springfield)

Stand up everybody.
This is where we start.
Listen to the rhythm
Of the music in your heart.
Get up on your feet.
Fire's burnin' red.
Listen to the rhythm
Of the music in your head.
Yeah, I'm addicted to the rhythm of the beat

You can't start a revolution
If you don't hear  revolutions call.
You'll never see a thousand rainbows
If you can't find the waterfall.
If you want to see mountains
Tumble into the sea,
Make a trip to Mars or to Mercury,
Take a giant step out of reality,
Come on and take a ride with me.

You wanna fly with angels
If you wanna sail through time
There's a dragon guarding the mountain
You have to climb...

Stand up everybody.
This is where we start.
Listen to the rhythm
Of the music in your heart.
Get up on your feet.
Fire's burning red.
Listen to the rhythm
Of the music in your head.
Yeah I'm addicted to the rhythm of the beat
Hey

Now I've got a real solution
And I want to tell the world tonight
You know it don't mean a thing
if it ain't got that swing
Fireworks without the dynamite
If you want to see spirits through a crystal ball
Watch kingdoms rise and kingdoms fall
Take a giant step into a fantasty
Come on and take a ride with me


If you wanna fly with angels
If you wanna sail through time.
There's a dragon guarding the mountain
We're gonna climb.

Stand up everybody.
This is where we start.
Listen to the rhythm
Of the music in your heart.
Get up on your feet.
Fire's burning red.
Listen to the rhythm
Of the music in your head.
Yea I'm addicted to the rhythm of the beat
Hey
Rhythm Of The Beat
Rhythm Of The Beat
Mountains gonna fall
to the rhythm of the beat

Rhythm Of The Beat
Rhythm Of The Beat
Kings stand tall to the
Rhythm Of The Beat

Dancin' in the street to the
Rhythm Of The Beat
Turn back time to the
Rhythm Of The Beat

The Rhythm Of The Beat
Turning up the heat
Let it shine to the
Rhythm Of The Beat

The Rhythm Of The Beat
The Rhythm Of The Beat
The Rhythm Of The Beat
