Beneath the Beat

Written mostly in the very early 80s, with a middle 8 recently thrown in, this song is very obviously influenced by the Two Tone label artists who broke through at that time. I heard you talking on the radio Beneath the beat The words you said went out the window But the music brought me to my feet Day by day Step by step Out on my way I take a breath We seem so free But incomplete Live all our lives Beneath the beat Couldn't tell you when it was That music came to town I only know that since that day It's always been around And never once let me down And it's given me a constant stream Of endorphins and dopamine So sing it out Loud and proud There's no real need for you To have to try to tell me What it's all about
