You Can't Stop the Beat Lyrics

TRACY

You cant stop an avalanche
As it races down the hill

You can try to stop the seasons, girl

But ya know you never will

And you can try to stop my dancin' feet

But i just cannot stand still

'Cause the world keeps spinning

'Round and 'round

And my heart's keeping time

To the speed of sound

I was lost til i heard the drums

Then i found my way

TRACY & LINK

'Cause you can't stop the beat

Ever since this old 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 cant stop

The motion of the ocean

Or the sun in the sky

You can wonder if you wanna

But i never ask why

And if you try to hold me down

I'm gonna spit in your eye and say

That you cant stop the beat!

(Penny appears onstage transformed into a hot teenage tigress.)

TRACY

What do ya' have to say, Penny?

PENNY

I am now a checkerboard chick!

You can't stop a river

As it rushes to the sea

You can try and stop the hands of time

But ya know it just can't be

And if they try to stop us, seaweed,

I'll call the n - double-a - ñ - p!

'Cause the world keeps spinning

'Round and 'round.

SEAWEED

'Round and 'round

PENNY

And my heart's keeping time

To the speed of sound

SEAWEED

Speed of sound

PENNY

I was lost till i heard the drums

Then i found my way

PENNY & SEAWEED

'Cause you can't stop the beat

PENNY & SEAWEED, TRACY & LINK

Ever since we first saw the light

A man and woman liked to shake it

On a saturday night

And so i'm gonna shake and shimmy it

With all 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 dreaming of

But they cannot stop the rhythm

Of two hearts in love to stay

'Cause you cant stop the beat!

EDNA

Tracy, I have a little something

I'd like to add, if you don't mind.

You cant 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
So if you don't like the way i look

Well, i ¦ust don't give a d***!

EDNA & ENSEMBLE

'Cause the world keeps spinning

'Round and 'round

And my heart's keeping time

To the speed of sound

I was lost til i heard the drums

Then i found my way

EDNA & WILBUR & COMPANY

'Cause you cant stop the beat

Ever since this old 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 cant stop

The motion of the ocean

Or the sun in the sky

You can wonder if you wanna

But i never ask why

And if you try to hold me down

I'm gonna spit in your eye and say

That you cant stop the beat!

EDNA

Wilbur, be a dear and get me my

oxygen... NOW!
