You Can't Stop the Beat (Glee Cast Version)

You can't stop an avalanche as it races down the hill

You can try to stop the seasons, but you know you never will

And you can try to stop my dancing feet, but I just cannot stand still

'Cause the world keeps on spinning 'round and 'round

And my heart's keeping time to the speed of sound

I was lost till I heard the drums, and I found my way

'Cause you can't stop the beat

Five, six, seven, eight

Ever since this whole 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 can't stop the motion of the ocean or the sun in the sky

You can wonder if you wanna, but I'll never ask why

If you try to hold me down, I'm gonna spit in your eye and say

That you can't stop the beat

You can't stop a river as it rushes to the sea

You can try to stop the hands of time, but you know it just can't be

And if they try to stop us, Artie, 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 till I heard the drums, and I found my way

'Cause you can't stop the beat

Ever since we first saw light

A man and woman like to shake it on a Saturday night

So I'm gonna shake and shimmy it with all of my might today

'Cause you can't stop the motion of the ocean or the rain from above

You 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 today (No)

As it comes speeding down the track (Ooh-ooh-ooh)

Child, yesterday is history (Be gone)

And it's never coming back (Could've had)

'Cause tomorrow is a brand new day

And it don't know white from black (Yeah)

'Cause the world keeps on spinning 'round and 'round

And my heart's keeping time to the speed of sound

I was lost till I heard the drums, then I found my way

'Cause you can't stop the beat

Oh, oh, oh

Ever since we first saw the sun

A man and woman like to shake it when the day is done

So I'm gonna shake and shimmy it and then have some fun today

'Cause you can't stop the motion of the ocean or the rain from above

You can try to stop the paradise we're dreaming of

But you cannot stop the rhythm of two hearts in love to stay

You can't stop the beat

You can't stop the beat

You can't stop the beat
