Lyrics
Shout!
Expressing urgency or emphasis, commanding attention
Here's a dance that is pure hell
Referring to a dance that is intense and unpleasant
Enter at your peril
Warning about potential danger upon entry
Take five deadbeat steps, do a stroll
Instructions to take five deliberate steps as a deadbeat, followed by a casual stroll
Act like you just got outta jail
Behave as if recently released from jail
You must be repellent
Suggesting a repulsive or off-putting presence
Dance deadbeat descendant
Commanding a deadbeat descendant to dance
Dead beat descendant (descendant) shout!
Reiteration of the instruction to shout, emphasizing the identity as a descendant
Come back here
Calling someone to return or come back
Come back here
Repetition of the call for someone to return
Turn left side and shout "come back here!"
Instruction to turn left and shout for someone to come back
Then hot-tail it right outta there
Immediately leave the situation or place
You are now descendant
Confirmation of the individual as a descendant
You are now descendant
Reiteration of the confirmation as a descendant
Dead beat descendant, shout!
Reiteration of the command to shout as a deadbeat descendant
Make out your head is in a bell
Imagining oneself with a head inside a bell, potentially feeling trapped or enclosed
And you got a man on your trail
Sensing a pursuit or being chased by someone
And you are descendant
Confirmation of being a descendant
Of a vicious criminal
Implying lineage from a dangerous or criminal ancestor
Dead beat descendant's
Identifying the arrival or emergence of deadbeat descendants
Dawn!
Referencing the break of dawn or a new beginning for deadbeat descendants
Dawn!
Reiteration of the emergence or arrival at dawn
