lyrics

You don't need this beat.
You don't need this beat.

You don't need this beat to wave your hands in the air.
You don't need this beat so wave your hands in the air.
You don't need this beat to wave your hands in the air.
You don't need this beat so wave your hands in the air.

Uh, uh.
I keep wonderin' all the time
what could be going on in your mind.
It sometimes seems that you're not there,
but it also seems that there's a person in there somewhere.

It's somethin' I feel, but I still don't know.
Maybe it's that you're going to fast when it seems like you're going to slow.
I've given you all your favorite things, but you still don't care
You don't need this beat to wave your hands in the air.

And there are sometimes that I'll try to yell
to make a little crack to get inside your shell.
Sometime I'll push you really hard, but you still won't budge,
and other times you'll fall over when I give you a little nudge.

I still am wondering what could be goin' on in that brain.
Maybe sometimes it's like you're playing a video game,
and you don't care if you die,
'cause you're thinkin' inside that you still got another guy.

And maybe this is your favorite song,
but you don't want to hear it blare, and you won't be singin' along.
Sometimes life just isn't fair.
You don't need this beat to wave your hands in the air.

And maybe things in there are all jumbled around,
and what you hear is sight, and what you see is sound.
And you're always going up when you should be coming down,
and you're facing the wrong direction when you should be turned around.

But maybe you're the new type of person in disguise.
A step in the right direction with some effects on the side.
I've got something important to tell you, but you just sit and stare.
You don't need this beat to wave your hands in the air.

Keep in mind that they're waiting to be cued in...

Keep in mind that I'm waiting to be clued in.
Maybe it's time for us to see that I am you and you are me.
Keep in mind that they're waiting to be cued in.
Maybe it's time for them to see that they're not you and you're not me.
Keep in mind that I'm waiting to be clued in.
Maybe it's time for us to see that I am you and you are me.
