The Jam – Beat Surrender

The Jam – Beat Surrender lyrics

Beat surrender

Come on boy, come on girl
Succumb to the beat surrender
Come on boy, come on girl
Succumb to the beat surrender

All the things that I care about
Are packed into one punch
All the things that I’m not sure about
Are sorted out at once

And as it was in the beginning
So shall it be in the end
That bullshit is bullshit
It just goes by different names

Come on boy, come on girl
Succumb to the beat surrender
Come on boy, come on girl
Succumb to the beat surrender

All the things that I shout about
But never act upon
All the courage and the dreams that I have
But seem to wait so long

My doubt is cast aside
Watch phonies run to hide
The dignified don’t even enter in the game

Come on boy, come on girl
Succumb to the beat surrender
Come on boy, come on girl
Succumb to the beat surrender

If you feel there’s no passion
No quality sensation
Seize the young determination
Show the fakers you ain’t foolin’

You’ll see me come runnin’
To the sound of your strummin’
Fill my heart with joy and gladness
I’ve lived too long in the shadows of sadness

My doubt is cast aside
Watch phonies run to hide
The dignified don’t even enter in the game

Come on boy, come on girl
Succumb to the beat surrender
Come on boy, come on girl
Succumb to the beat surrender
