BLONDIE LYRICS - The Beast

"The Beast"



We want fun we wanna run

We want fun we gotta run

We want fun get out among the hottest clubs and find some love

Billions of people have heard of me and everyone knows

the sun rises in the East.

Not too nice, not too sweet, no-one even talks to me.

I shake the leaves right off the trees. I'm the bee's greasy knees.

I shake 'em, I break 'em, I drop 'em from eight miles high, alright



In the past my fate was cast, my social life was limited to Halloween

and New Years Eve, monotony was killing me, approaching schizophrenia.

I hit the hot spots every night and...

for the first time in my life the bouncers would greet me,

the doormen would escort me, managers adored me.

Photographers would follow me begging for a smile;

"Beast, over here, Beast!" "Here, Beast!" The hat check always said to me,

"Hiya B, whatcha doin' later?"



We want fun we gotta run

If you need fun get out and run

You need fun for feeling fine

We want fun for feeling fine and find the one...



Now I'm not bragging. Heaven knows, I spend no more nights alone.



Lucky me, I'm ten foot three and freaky.

My picture's been reprinted, interviews requested one hundred times a week.

Believe it, I'm not talking through my teeth.....

Are you sure you got it, I mean it, to prove it I'm in the news.

It's true, it's true, check it out, check it out



He wants her love

She wants love



I take action, get relief, pick a partner, pick a piece, get satisfaction

I am the Beast, I am the Beast



She wants fun

He wants her love



I get satisfaction - I pick up my feet.

I'm the centre of attraction by staying off the streets



And I want love, get some funk and get some fun

Punks like fun, punks like funk

Funk is fun, we want fun
