Lyrics

Deadbeat boy, did you buy a new toy
No way you're replacing me
Ain't gonna give it up, ain't gonna giddy up and go go, no no
Don't get coy, I will suck all the joy
Out of all of your crazy dreams
Dare me to shiver 'em, better be quivering
Back down, back down

I want your body and soul, I got you under control
No way you're escaping from me

Chorus:

Lay it down, you're gonna get pushed around
And I'll show you how revenge can feel
Take me down and I'll bury you into the ground
Na na know there's no way out of here
You better back down

Deadbeat boy, gonna kill and destroy
Can't keep avoiding me
Ain't ever give it up, don't think I'll ever let go go, no no
Deadbeat boy, did you get a new toy
Nobody's gonna take you from me
Cry me a river, just stand and deliver
You go down, go down

I want your body and soul, I got you under control
No way you will get out of here

(Repeat chorus)

(Solo)

(Repeat chorus)

Robby talks about Deadbeat Boy

A vaudeville type of song. Starts with a saloon piano recorded on bad vinyl. A Michael Jackson-minded verse. Queen-like harmonies in the chorus. Brian May’s guitar orchestra in ‘Good company’ was the inspiration of the guitar solo.
