The beat of love is a nasty one.
it's a flame from the devils fire.
'cause nothing is stronger than boys and their eyes
and it's worse when you know he's a liar.
it's just the beat of love.

the beat of love is a nasty one
they promise you heaven they promise you fun then the
next thing you know you are down on the floor
and you think you're in love
oh heaven above
it's just the beat of love.

you take my mind and you cheat it.
you take my body and heat it
then you take my heart and you beat it
and the beat of love goes on.

it's just the beat of love

the beat of love is a nasty one
people bang on the door to get in
then one they're inside they just want to be free
and they bang at the doors with a beat they can't see
it's the beat of love.

it's just the beat of love.

the beat of love is a nasty one
there are all kinds of ways to get banged.
they'll tell you is violence they'll tell you it's sex
they'll tell you that it's all the same.

the beat of love is a nasty one
there all kinds of ways to go down
she slams her hips and then she slams the door
and then wonders why he's not around

love is a life nerve
a mission
a principle
the grand passion
temptation

it's just the beat of love.
