C’mon Every Beatbox Lyrics

[Intro]
"Sit tight and listen keenly, while I'll play for you a brand new musical biscuit!"
"I hope you realise you're playing with dynamite."
"This time I'll bet you it's bad"

Wow!
I got it!
Watch me!
Wow!
I got it!


[Verse 1]
There's been a brainwave at the radio station
Old ideas from the Woodstock generation
Calling all the kids from across the nation
In some it brings out love, in others termination

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Love and unity
Don't worry ‘bout the power, we got a generator
And publicity
Batteries for rent; you can pay us later

[Verse 2]
Get your digital watches in synchronization
Producer of the show has got a selfish motivation
It's the place to be, and we got a location
Another gold disc for an album compilation
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Bring the family
Everybody's welcome, there will be no discrimination
Take a tip from me
In case there's a problem, bring identification

[Chorus]
C'mon every beatbox, in the place to be
C'mon every beatbox, we got a Rammellzee
C'mon every beatbox, let's party and how
C'mon every beatbox, let's party right now
Party right now

[Hook 1]
"I am concerned over the possibility of another gang war."
Watch me
I got it
Watch me!


[Verse 3]
So the Holy Smokes are coming, we got a confirmation
Centre of the city's been a major transformation
Gandhi got a shock, and he took a vacation
Check the wild life, it's a real fascination

[Pre-Chorus 3]
Hope they stay in line
Raiders, Posse British-born, but still they're Jamaican
Dialing 999
Salt 'n' pepper people, stirred not shaken
[Chorus]
C'mon every beatbox, in the place to be
C'mon every beatbox, we got a Rammellzee
C'mon every beatbox, let's party and how
C'mon every beatbox, let's party right now
Party right now

[Hook 2]
"Holy Nightmare!"
"The white man ain't left me nothing out here but the underworld, and that is where I dance. Where do you dance?"

[Verse 4]
The knights of Saint George dressed for aggravation
Heard about the party, and they sent a delegation
The bulldog crew don't need no provocation
Got a strange idea about the country's liberation

[Pre-Chorus 4]
B.A.D. and little Sipho
Help keep the peace, don't need no lawbreaker
No one can stop the show
The promoter didn't book no undertaker

[Outro]
C'mon every beatbox, in the place to be
C'mon every beatbox, we got a Rammellzee
C'mon every beatbox, let's party and how
C'mon every beatbox, let's party right now
Party right now

Genius Annotation

A call to arms for bands of all cultural persuasions to come together for a festival style concert, with the explicit goal of harmony amongst diversity.

The first and third lines from each verse borrow the melody (note progression) of the first two lines of each verse of Eddie Cochran’s 1958 hit “Summertime Blues”.
