 You  cant stop an avalanche
 As it races down the hill
 You can try to stop the seasons, girl
 But ya know you never will
 And you can try  to stop  my dancin'  feet
 But i just  cannot  stand still
 'Cause the world  keeps spinning
 'Round and 'round
 And my heart's  keeping time
 To the speed  of sound
 I was lost  til i heard the drums
 Then i found my way
 'Cause you  can't  stop  the  beat
 Ever since  this old world  began
 A woman found  out if she shook  it
 She could shake  up a man
 And so i'm gonna  shake and shimmy  it
 The best  that i can  today
 'Cause you
cant  stop
 The motion  of the ocean
 Or the sun  in the sky
 You can wonder  if you wanna
 But i never  ask why
 And if you try  to hold me down
 I'm gonna spit  in your eye  and say
 That you
cant  stop  the  beat!
 You  can't stop a river
 As it rushes to the sea
 You can try and stop the hands of time
 But ya know it just can't be
 And if they try  to stop  us, seaweed,
 I'll call the N  double A C P!
 'Cause the world  keeps spinning
 'Round and 'round
 And my heart's  keeping time
 To the speed  of sound
 I was lost  til i heard the drums
 Then i found my way
 'Cause you  can't  stop  the  beat
 Ever since  we first saw  the light
 A man and woman  liked to shake  it
 On a saturday night
 And so i'm gonna  shake and shimmy  it
 With all  my might  today
 'Cause you
cant  stop
 The motion  of the ocean
 Or the rain  from above
 They can try  to stop the paradise
 We're  dreaming of
 But they cannot  stop the rhythm
 Of two hearts  in love  to stay
 'Cause you
cant  stop  the  beat!
You  cant stop my happiness
 'Cause i like the way i am
 And you just can't stop my knife and fork
 When i see a christmas ham
 So if you  don't  like the way  i look
 Well, i |ust don't give a damn!
 'Cause the world  keeps spinning
 'Round and 'round
 And my heart's  keeping time
 To the speed  of sound
 I was lost  til i heard the drums
 Then i found my way
 'Cause you cant stop the  beat
 Ever since  this old world  began
 A woman found  out if she shook  it
 She could shake  up a man
 And so i'm gonna  shake and shimmy  it
 The best  that i can  today
 'Cause you  cant  stop
 The motion  of the ocean
 Or the sun  in the sky
 You can wonder  if you wanna
 But i never  ask why
 And if you try  to hold me down
 I'm gonna spit  in your eye and say
 That you  cant  stop the  beat!
 Oh, oh, oh,
 You  can't stop today
 As it comes speeding down the track
 Child, yesterday is hist'ry
 And it's never coming back
 'Cause tomorrow is  a brand  new day
 And it don't know  white from black
 'Cause the world  keeps spinning
 'Round  and 'round
 And my heart's  keeping time
 To the speed  of sound
 I was lost  til i heard the drums
 Then i found my way
 'Cause you
cant  stop
the  beat
 Ever since  we first saw  the light
 A man and woman  liked to shake  it
 On a saturday night
 And so i'm gonna  shake and shimmy  it
 With all  my might  today
 'Cause you
can't  stop
 The motion  of the ocean
 Or the rain  from above
 They can try  to stop ths paradise
 We're  dreaming of
 But you cannot  stop the rhythm
 Of two hearts  in love  to stay
 Cause you
can't  stop  the  beat!
 Aah, aah, aah
 Aah, aah, aah
 Aah, aah, aah, aah
 Come on, you von tussles
 Go on, shake your fanny muscles
 We can't!
 Yes, you can!
 No, we can't!
 Yes, you can!
 Yes, we can...!!!
You  can't  stop the  beat
 Ever since  we first saw  the sun
 It seems von tussle  girls are always
 Tryin' to please  someone
 But now we're gonna  shake and shimmy  it
 And have  some fun
 Today!
 'Cause you  can't  stop the
motion  of the ocean
 Or the rain  from above
They  can try  to stop the paradise
 We're  dreaming of
But  you cannot  stop the rhythm
 Of two hearts  in love to stay
 'Cause you  can't  stop the  beat!
You  can't stop the beat!!
 You can't stop the beat!!!
You  can't stop the beat!!
 You can't stop the beat!!!
  the beat!!
