Afrika Bambaataa › Lyrics › Looking for the Perfect Beat [Original Twelve Inch Version]

Universal people
Looking for the perfect beat
Mortal motivations
Looking for the perfect beat

Mighty Zulu Nation
They have found the perfect beat
Afrika Bambaataa
I present the perfect beat
Beat, beat, beat, beat

Looking for the perfect beat
Searching for the perfect beat
Looking for the perfect beat
Seeking for the perfect beat

I must get mine
I'm out to get it
I must get mine
I'm out to get it

Now in this world of music
There are many different tones, tell 'em
If there's no satisfaction
Just pay for some action, listen up

On your radio
You hear perfect beats playing, hey
If it makes you satisfied
Just get a pony and ride, giddy up

Well, if you're looking for the perfect beat, people
Well, here's a perfect beat for ya
So, song is playin' there
With a chorus, you can sing round up

Looking for the perfect beat
Searching for the perfect beat
Looking for the perfect beat
Seeking for the perfect beat

I must get mine
I'm out to get it
I must get mine
I'm out to get it

Looking for the perfect beat
Looking for the perfect beat
Looking for the perfect beat
Looking for the perfect beat

Say, we like to body rock the parties
Say, we like to body rock the parties
You like to body rock the parties
We like to instant pop in the parties

Students of the music at every single age
Must exercise the quotes of Shakespeare
Which is life upon the stage

When we say, life you know that
Life has meaning
Our music keep on pleasing
And all the things that we want
Keep teasing, teasing, teasing, teasing

Looking for the perfect beat, people
Well, here's a perfect beat for ya

Looking for the perfect beat
Looking for the perfect beat
Looking for the perfect beat
Looking for the perfect beat

Looking for the perfect beat, party
The one with the top sure shot mix shot
Futuristic hit dance, to dance, just party
Get loose, get loose

Every time we get into it
Makes us wheel and deal
Brings out the very best in us
That is for real

Now this is what you gotta do
This is what you gotta do
This is a thing you must to
Round up

Music is a must
Its rhythm moves the women
To a spacey romantic ocean
[Incomprehensible]

Prefer every moment
Is a space on the parade
With the psychedelic shades
To make you party, party, everybody

This is what you gotta do
This is what you gotta do
This is a thing you must to
Round up

Lookin'
Lookin'
I must get mine
I'm out to get it

Mr Bigs
Looking for the perfect beat
Now Pow Wow is
Looking for the perfect beat

The G L O B E
Has got the perfect beat
People of the world
Looking for the perfect beat

All the boys and girls
Looking for the perfect beat
The Soul Sonic Force
Has found the perfect beat

Beat this!
Beat this!
Beat this!

Lookin' for the perfect beat
Lookin' for the perfect beat
Beat this!

Lookin' for the perfect beat
Lookin' for the perfect beat
Beat this!

Looking for the perfect beat, people
Well, here's a perfect beat for ya
Soul Sonic, stay, aim
With a chorus, you can sing
Round up

Looking for the perfect beat
Looking for the perfect beat
Beat this!

Get up on this round
Or you'll be left behind
Say, say, say, say round up
Round up
Say, round up
Round up

Say, hit that beat
Hit that beat
That perfect beat
That perfect beat

I gotta get mine
Gotta get mine
Gotta get mine
Gotta get mine

It's working
It's working
It's working
It's working

Say, we like to body rock the party
We like to body rock the party
Say, we like to body rock the party
We like to body rock the party
You like to body rock the party
We like to instant pop the party

Lookin', lookin'
