Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
"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 be a macho man (O oh)
You wanna be tough, better do what you can
So beat it, but you wanna be bad
Just beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it
No one wants to be defeated
Showin' how funky and strong is your fight
It doesn't matter who's wrong or right
Just beat it (Beat it)
Just beat it (Beat it)
Just beat it (Beat it)
Just beat it (Beat it, uh)
They're out to get you
Better leave while you can
Don't wanna be a boy, you wanna be a man
You wanna stay alive, better do what you can
So beat it, but you wanna be bad
Just beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it
No one wants to be defeated
Showin' how funky and strong is your fight
It doesn't matter who's wrong or right
Just beat it (Beat it) beat it (Beat it)
Just beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it
(Oh, Lord) no one wants to be defeated
Showin' 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, beat it, beat it, beat it
(Hoo hoo)
No one wants to be defeated (Oh, Lord)
Showin' how funky and strong is your fight
It doesn't matter who's wrong or right
Just beat it
Hoo hoo!

It is evident to me Myles took the role so seriously and really did the work to understand Michael in all aspects. Well done!!!
Theresa Williams
The lead really embodies the physical body movements of MJ in this clip. If the rest of the show is like this, it must be incredible to watch in person.

Oh my God it's Michael reincarnated. What can I say about this that doesn't send me reeling. How can people be this talented and make Michael look like he's really on stage.
