Play That Beat Mr. D.J.

Punk-rock, new-wave, and soul
Pop music, salsa and rock and roll
Calypso, reggae, rhythm and blues
Master mix those number one tunes
Play that favorite song of mine
And accept my calls on the request line
DJ will play just for you
But I gotta get down and show I know how to

We got favorites, a favorite color
A favorite number, a favorite brother
A favorite sister, a favorite dish
A favorite car or a favorite wish
A favorite team or pair of jeans
A favorite song to sing
And when I'm in the mood to hear good music play
I'm entertained by my favorite DJ
I wanna dance and think of romance
I wanna get down on my favorite sound
I need music energy from my head to my feet - ah
First I hear it and then I start to feel it
My fingers start snapping and my hands start clapping
A spirit lifts and then my backbone slips
I want to keep on step at the discotheque
So just play that beat, play it, kick it

Play that beat, why don't you play it for me?
Play it, kick it
Play that beat, why don't you play it for me?
Play it, kick it
Play that beat
Play that beat
Play that beat, why don't you play it for me?

Play it at the disco
Play it in your headphones
Play it at the party
Play it in your home
Play it on your lunch break
The beat that makes your body shake
Play that beat
Play it, kick it

Play that beat, why don't you play it for me?
Play that beat, why don't you play it for me?
Play that beat
Play that beat
Play that beat
Why don't you play it for me?

You can play it
And play it and play it and play it and play it
And play it all night long
And I'll listen to it over and over
Again and again and again and again
You can play my song, yes
And I'll keep on dancing and keep on dancing
Having fun until the morning sun
DJ will play just for you
So you gotta get down and show you know how to
I've been waiting to feel a sensation
Of my song when I hear it come on
It takes me away from everyday things
The music vibration is an inspiration
It lifts my spirit any time I hear it
God knows it makes you feel good
Go 'head mister disc jockey
Play that beat
Play it, kick it

Play that beat, why don't you play it for me
Play that beat, why don't you play it for me
Play that beat
Play that beat
Play that beat
Why don't you play it for me?

You can play it
And play it and play it and play it and play it
And play it all night long
And I'll listen to it over and over
Again and again and again and again
While you play my song, yes
And I'll keep on dancing and keep on dancing
Having fun until the morning sun
Play it for me, just play it for me!
Hooo... He is the king of every beat
The one man band seven days a week
The passion and pain of radio
Celebrity of every disco
The one with the gifted fingertips
Music is his bag of tricks
Go ahead mister disc jockey
Play that beat
Play it, kick it

Who's the man with the music program? (the DJ, the DJ)
Who's the man that will make you dance? (the DJ, the DJ)
Who's the one that plays favorite songs? (the DJ, the DJ)
Say play that beat (play that beat)
Say play it, kick it (play it, kick it)

Say cut it up Whiz, cut it up (cut it up Whiz, cut it up)
Say goes 'head (ho 'head)
Go 'head (go 'head)
Say play that beat (play that beat)
Say play it, kick it (play it, kick it)
