Usually I'm Ms. Pretty Please
Act nice and pray down on my knees
Never get too hot or act too cold
I'm the poster girl to self control
.
And if I'm making noise
Like I never do
And dancing with the boys
And maybe even you
.
As soon as my body hits that rhythm
Something starts happening to my system
.
I'm moving my feet like the floor's on fire
Screaming to my girls "Yeah, let's get wild!"
Setting off a chain reaction
Forgive me, I can't stop dancing
.
Blame it on the beat
Don't blame it on me
When I act crazy
Blame it on the beat
.
Usually I'm perfectly behaved
Never give you reason to complain
Then I hear the pounding of this track
About to move around like a maniac
.
And if I'm making noise
Like I never do
And dancing with the boys
And maybe even you
.
As soon as my body hits that rhythm
Something starts happening to my system
.
I'm moving my feet like the floor's on fire
Screaming to my girls "Yeah, let's get wild!"
Setting off a chain reaction
Forgive me, I can't stop dancing
.
Blame it on the beat
Don't blame it on me
When I act crazy
Blame it on the beat
Blame it on the beat
Blame it on the beat
.
All my manners out the door
When I hear foot on the floor
Jackal and Hyde
I turn it to my other side
Don't mean to make a scene
But I'm at the mercy of the power of the beat
Now sit down and watch me dance
.
Blame it on the beat
Don't blame it on me
When I act crazy
Blame it on the beat
.
As soon as my body hits that rhythm
Something starts happening to my system
.
Blame it on the beat
Don't blame it on beat
When I act crazy
Blame it on the beat
Blame it on the beat
Blame it on the beat
