About

Beat Goes On Lyrics

[Intro: Pharrell Williams]
Oh, mm
What? Mhm
Let's dance, again

[Verse 1: Madonna]
Don't sit there like some silly girl
If you wait too long, it'll be too late
I'm not tellin' you something new
There ain't no time to lose (No time to lose)
It's time for you to celebrate

[Refrain: Pharrell Williams & Madonna]
So get down (Get up), beep beep
Gotta get up outta your seat (Little girl)
Get down (It's time), beep beep
Gotta get up outta your seat (Your world)
Get down (Your life), beep beep
Gotta get up outta your seat (Your choice)
Get down (It's time), beep beep
Gotta get up outta your seat (Live it up)

[Chorus: Madonna & Pharrell Williams]
On and on, on the beat goes
On and on, on the beat goes
On and on, on the beat goes
On and on, on the beat goes
On and on, on the beat goes
On and on, on the beat goes
On and on, on the beat goes
On and on, on the beat goes

[Verse 2: Madonna]
You don't have the luxury of time
You have got to say what's on your mind
Your head lost in the stars
You'll never go far (No time to lose)
It's time for you to read the signs

[Refrain: Pharrell Williams, Madonna]
So get down (Here comes), beep beep
Gotta get up outta your seat (My hand)
Get down (Take it), beep beep
Gotta get up outta your seat (You can)
Get down (The time), beep beep
Gotta get up outta your seat (Is now)
Get down (I'll show), beep beep
Gotta get up outta your seat (You how)

[Chorus: Madonna & Pharrell Williams]
On and on, on the beat goes
On and on, on the beat goes
On and on, on the beat goes
On and on, on the beat goes
On and on, on the beat goes
On and on, on the beat goes
On and on, on the beat goes
On and on, on the beat goes

[Post-Chorus: Madonna, Pharrell Williams]
Say what you like (Say what you like)
Do what you feel (Do what you feel)
You know exactly who you are (You know exactly who you are)
The time is right now, you got to decide (Woo)
Stand in the back or be the star (Don't sit in the back)

[Refrain: Madonna, Pharrell Williams]
Get down (Here comes), beep beep
Gotta get up outta your seat (My hand)
Get down (Take it), beep beep
Gotta get up outta your seat (You can)
Get down (The time), beep beep
Gotta get up outta your seat (Is now)
Get down (I'll show), beep beep
Gotta get up outta your seat (You how), on and on (On and on)

[Bridge: Madonna, Pharrell Williams, Kanye West]
I can't keep waiting for you (For you)
Anticipating that you've
No time to lose (For you)
I can't keep waiting for you (Uh)

[Verse 3: Kanye West, Madonna]
Here's a impromptu, I want you
Now I'm gon' to tell you what I want to (Uh-huh) do to you
Your girlfriend, she wants to, beautiful
Just flew in from Paris, voulez-vous?
In a city that don't snooze (I can't keep waiting for you)
Schmooze amongst the who's whos
And I use my celeb to get this one home
Why everything that feel good gotta be so wrong?
Give me room now (Hey)
I'm like a vampire under full moon now (Hey)
And I don't know about you now (Hey)
But I think I wanna try somethin' new now, see what it do now
And when you sat down (Hey), uh
'Cause you was losing your breath now (Hey), uh
'Cause you be doing it to death now (Hey)
She be doin' E to F now, what's left now?
Mr. West now (Hey)
Can you get any more fresh now? (Hey)
I think I just did, just now (Hey)
Talkin' my shit, that's how (Hey)
I'm a professional, I admit that (Hey)
"Flashing Lights", yo, I lived that (Hey)
Fame is a drug, wanna hit that? (Hey)
'Cause I know exactly where to get that (Hey)
Did you get that?

[Outro: Kanye West, Madonna, Pharrell Williams]
Get down, beep beep
Gotta get up off of your seat
Get down, beep beep
Gotta get up off of your seat now
On and on (Hey, hey)
The beat goes on and on
'Cause they know exactly where to get that
Did you get that? (Let's go)
Get down, beep beep
Gotta get up out of your seat now (The beat goes)
Get down, beep beep
Gotta get up out of your seat now (The beat goes)
On and on (Hey, hey)
The beat goes, on and on (Hey, hey)
The beat goes, on and on (Hey, hey)
On and on (Hey, hey)
On and on

What has Madonna said about Kanye West's rap in the song?

It was fun coaching Kanye on his rap. Because you know, I don’t rap, I don’t really work on rap records, so. Ferrell was laughing at me the whole time ‘cause I kept pressing him about going “no, repeat that.” He was like “repeat what?” and I tried to do what he was doing. It was fun. It was a learni...
