Return Of The Beat Menace

[Verse 1]
Again you announce
While you whirl and bounce
Intentions to pounce on the beat menace
No woman or man
Could ever withstand
The devious plans of the beat menace

[Chorus]
Come to lay you low
We've come to vex your soul

[Verse 2]
Feeling the heat
Hell at your feet
Don't even speak of the beat menace

[Bridge 1]
Something to take away your innocence
Someone to blame it on
Helps you to defeat
Dancing in the street

[Chorus]
Come to lay you low
We've come to vex you

[Verse 3]
Resolved in your mind
The nature of crime
Is to swallow the line of the beat menace
You live to correct
Those who reject
The sins you connect to the beat menace

[Bridge 2]
Imagination on the rise again
So hide your heart away
Dust off the fears and guilts and lies again
The beat is here to stay
Your satellites can reach that Eskimo
He buys a suit and tie
Re-styles his hair like girls in Tupelo
And sings "Sweet By-and-By"
He's meeting all your strange requirements
He thinks you can't be fooled
He'll get the rules and laws and sacraments
By sending checks to you

[Chorus]
We've come to bring you low
