I turned a girl into a heaving, senseless wreck,
  I made the captain of the ship dance off his deck.
  I've made the old man jump to his feet,
  I'm in demand -  I am the beat.

You always listen to me on your radio,
  I taught your body all it really needs to know
  Who kept the lawman down on the street?
  I'm in demand - I am the beat.

When the Martian came to Earth, I made him dance...
  Mr. Krupa had to thank me for his chance!
  Who made the zombies all tap their feet?
