Lyrics DJ Shadow – Devil’s Advocate

Now may I say to you friend, there is nothing wrong with a beat
It’s used in every type of song whether it’s a march, a waltz, a polka, a tango
But rock and roll is a different type of thing
For it is a mixture and confusion of beats that jangles the nerves

The impulsive beast of our bodies —
The spirit of pure unprovoked music
Has been domesticated for profit
What music must give birth to orgasm and revolution?
The heavy rock music now in style
Motivates you internally
Gives you a sexual feeling
A girl can be turned on by the music
And releases her inhibitions
The beat of the drum has always been a factor, a part of fertiliy rates — you cannot mix them
A girl realizes her sexuality through the music and the beat!

But they said there was something that got to them
More than the words of the songs
And it was the beat! The beat!
Louder and faster!
Louder and faster!
Louder and faster!
Louder and faster!
Louder and faster!
It hooks young people
And they become a part of this generation
And their lives are ruined!
Until they can shake themselves of this filthy beat and music and words that produces
Revolution, sex and drugs

The same beat produces the same evil inclinations
Even if we tie the word «Jesus saves» to it

Smash those filthy records, get rid of them
