You can't stop an avalanche as it races down the hill
You can try to stop the seasons, girl, but you know you never will
And you can try to stop my dancing feet, but I just cannot stand still
'Cause the world keeps spinnin' round and round
And my heart's keeping time to the speed of sound
I was lost 'til I heard the drums, then I found my way
'Cause you can't stop the beat
Ever since this old world began
A woman found out if she shook it, she could shake up a man
And so I'm gonna shake and shimmy it the best that I can today
'Cause you can't stop the motion of the ocean or the sun in the sky
You can wonder if you wanna, but I'll never ask why
If you try to hold me down, I'm gonna spit in your eye and say
You can't stop the beat
What do you have to say, Penny?
I am now a checkerboard chick
Whoo! You can't stop a river as it rushes to the sea
You can try to stop the hands of time, but you know it just won't be
And if they try to stop us, seaweed, that's the end of Lacey Pee
'Cause the world keeps spinnin' round and round (round and round)
And my heart's keeping time to the speed of sound (the speed of sound)
I was lost 'til I heard the drums, then I found my way
You can't stop the beat
Ever since we first saw the light
A man and woman like to shake it on a Saturday night
And so I'm gonna shake and shimmy it with all of my might today
You can't stop the motion of the ocean or the rain from above
They can try to stop the paradise we're dreamin' of
But you cannot stop the rhythm of two hearts in love to stay
You can't stop the beat
Casey, I have a little something I'd like to add if you don't mind
You can't stop my happiness 'cause I like the way I am
And you just can't stop my knife and fork when I see a Christmas ham
So if you don't like the way I look, well, I just don't give a damn
'Cause the world keeps spinnin' round and round
And my heart's keeping time to the speed of sound
I was lost 'til I heard the drums, then I found my way
'Cause you can't stop the beat
Ever since this old world began
A woman found out if she shook it, she could shake up a man
And so I'm gonna shake and shimmy it the best that I can today
'Cause you can't stop the motion of the ocean or the sun in the sky
You can wonder if you wanna, but I'd rather ask why
And if you try to hold me down, I'm gonna spit in your eye and say
You can't stop the beat
Bubba Q, fetch some oxygen now
Step aside, Miss Buttercup
It's time to wrap this mother up
Oh, oh, oh, you can't stop today (no!)
Here it comes feelin' down the track (ooh, child, yeah!)
Yesterday is history (be gone!)
And it's never comin' back
Move ahead 'cause tomorrow is a brand-new day
And it don't know white from black (yeah!)
'Cause the world keeps spinnin' round and round
And my heart's keeping time to the speed of sound
I was lost 'til I heard the drums, then I found my way
You can't stop the beat
Ever since we first saw the light
A man and woman like to shake it on a Saturday night
And so I'm gonna shake and shimmy it with all of my might today
You can't stop the motion of the ocean or the rain from above
They can try to stop the paradise we're dreamin' of
But you cannot stop the rhythm of two hearts in love to stay
You can't stop the beat
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah
Come on, give a tussle, go and shake your patty muscle (we can't)
Yes, you can (no, we can't)
Yes, you can (yes, we can)
You can't stop the beat
Ever since we first saw the sun
You see, my tussle girls are always trying to please someone
So now we're gonna shake and shimmy it and have some fun today
You can't stop the motion of the ocean or the rain from above
They can try to stop the paradise we're dreamin' of
But you cannot stop the rhythm of two hearts in love today
You can't stop the beat
You can't stop the beat (you can't stop the beat)
You can't stop the beat (you can't stop the beat)
Blood on the pavement, what a mess
Is that your eyeball on my dress?
Don't drink and drive, please keep your head
Or come graduation day, you'll be dead
Hands on the wheel, though I know it's a drag
I'd hate to see that body in a body bag
Kids, listen up, 'cause I am my mom
Yes, blood on the pavement will ruin your prom
