Beat It/State of Shock (Immortal Version) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
They told him, “Don't you ever come around here
Don't wanna see your face, you better disappear”
The fire's in their eyes and their words are really clear
So beat it, just beat it
You better run, you better do what you can
Don't wanna see no blood, don't be a macho man
You wanna be tough, better do what you can
So beat it, but you wanna be bad

[Chorus]
Just beat it (Beat it), beat it, (Beat it)
No one wants to be defeated
Showing how funky and strong is your fight
It doesn't matter who's wrong or right
Just beat it…

[Bridge]
STOP!
You wanna see who's bad? You wanna see who's bad?
Come on, come on, let's do it
Let's see who's bad, man, come on
Come on, let's go!

Who's bad? (Who's bad?)
Who's bad? (Who's bad?)
Who's bad? (Who's bad?)
Who's bad?
They're telling me (They're telling me)
You're doing wrong (You're doing wrong)
They'll lock you up (They'll lock you up)
Before too long (Before too long)
You're doing wrong (You're doing wrong)
You're doing wrong (You're doing wrong)
You're doing wrong, boy (You're doing wrong)
You're doing wrong (You're doing wrong)
Who's bad? (Who's bad?)
Who's bad? (Who's bad?)
Who's bad, brother? (Who's bad?)
Who's bad? (Who's bad?)
WOO!

Beat it

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
Beat it (Beat it), beat it (Beat it)
No one wants to be defeated
Showing how funky and strong is your fight
It doesn't matter who's wrong or right
(Who's wrong or who's right)
Just beat it (Ooh hoo) (Beat it), beat it (Beat it)
No one wants to be defeated (Oh Lord)
Showing how funky (Hee, hee) and strong is your fight (Hee, hee, hee)
It doesn't matter who's wrong or right

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
