Chorus:
The beat goes on the beat goes on,
Drums keep poundin' a rhythm to the brain,
La - di - da - di - dee la - di - da - di - dah

1) Gyro-spin was once the rage, uh - huh,
History has turned a page, uh - huh,
The mini skirt's the current thing, uh - huh,
Teey-bopper is our new born king, uh - huh

Chorus:

2) The grocery store, the super-mart, uh - huh,
Little girls still break their hearts, uh - huh,
And men still keep on marchin' off to war,
Electrically they keep a baseball score

Chorus:

3) Grandmas sit in chairs and reminisce,
Boys keep chasing girls to get a kiss,
The cars keep'a goin' faster all the time,
Bum still cries, "Hey buddy, have you got a dime?"

Chorus:

And the beat goes on (Yes, the beat goes on)
And the beat goes on (And the beat goes on and on and on and )
And the beat goes on (Yes, the beat goes on)
(Repeat and fade)
