The Afterbeat (Radio Edit)
Everybody knows about the beat
Everybody's talking about the beat
Everybody's dancing on the beat
The down beat, beat
But there's a different angle here for you
Another beat has always been there, too
A new dance has hit
This is it
The afterbeat is the next beat after the
Down beat (After the down beat)
Not the first beat or the on beat
But the off beat (Yeah the off beat, beat, b...)
The afterbeat is the next beat after the
Down beat (Down, down, down beat)
Not the first beat or the on beat
But the off beat (Talking about the off beat, beat, b...)
Everybody knows about the beat
Everybody's talking about the beat
Everybody's dancing on the beat
The down beat, beat
But there's a different angle here for you
Another beat has always been there, too
A new dance has hit
This is it
The afterbeat is the next beat after the
Down beat (After the down beat)
Not the first beat or the on beat
But the off beat (Yeah the off beat, beat, b...)
The afterbeat is the next beat after the
Down beat (Down, down, down beat)
Not the first beat or the on beat
But the off beat (Talking about the off beat, beat, b...)
Not a beat-up beat or a Beatnik beat
But an afterbeat
The emphasis is on the last bit, that's
The afterbeat
Not an oom-pa-pa nor a cha-cha-cha
But the afterbeat
The afterbeat is the next beat after the
Down beat (After the down beat)
Not the first beat or the on beat
But the off beat (Yeah the off beat, beat, b...)
The afterbeat is the next beat after the
Down beat (Down, down, down beat)
Not the first beat or the on beat
But the off beat (Talking about the off beat, beat, b...)
Everybody's talking about the beat
Everybody's dancing on the beat
The down beat, beat
But there's a different angle here for you
Another beat has always been there, too
A new dance has hit
This is it
The afterbeat is the next beat after the
Down beat (After the down beat)
Not the first beat or the on beat
But the off beat (Yeah the off beat, beat, b...)
The afterbeat is the next beat after the
Down beat (Down, down, down beat)
Not the first beat or the on beat
But the off beat (Talking about the off beat, beat, b...)
Everybody knows about the beat
