Just beat it ...

There are any number of musical sonnets to use to illustrate the recent actions of Chestnut Hill Community Association with the giving of the "final warning" to the Local Editor-in-Chief. One could be that Rocky tune we know so well, The Final Countdown by Europe but I more prone to go with the energy and lyrics of the song of Beat It by Michael Jackson. It’s something I could see Ed Feldman jamming out to, so on with the song. Hum to yourself and think of your favorite board member.

They told him don’t you ever come around here
Don’t wanna see your face, you better disappear
The fires in their eyes and their words are really clear
So beat it, just beat it.

You better run, you better do what you can
Don’t wanna see no blood, don’t be a macho man
You wanna be tough, better do what you can
So beat it, but you wanna be bad

Just beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it

No one wants to be defeated
Showin’ how funky strong is your fighter
It doesn’t matter who’s wrong or right
Just beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it, Just beat it…..

They’re out to get you, better leave while you can
Don’t wanna be a boy, you wanna be a man
You wanna stay alive, better do what you can

So beat it, just beat it, beat it, beat it.

You have to show them that you’re really not scared
You’re playin’ with your life, this ain’t no truth or dare
They’ll kick you, then they beat you,
Then they’ll tell you its fair
So beat it, but you wanna be bad

Just beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it
No one wants to be defeated
Showin’ how funky strong is your fighter
It doesn’t matter who’s wrong or right

Just beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it
No one wants to be defeated
Showin’ how funky strong is your fighter

It doesn’t matter who’s wrong or right
Just beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it
It doesn’t matter who’s wrong or right

Just beat it, beat it
Beat it, beat it, beat it

Yours Truly,
R
