Beat It (避开) - Michael Jackson (迈克尔·杰克逊)

Written by：Michael Jackson

They told him don't you ever come around here

Don't wanna see your face you better disappear

The fire's 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 fight

It doesn't matter who's wrong or right

Just beat it beat it

Just beat it beat it

Just beat it beat it

Just beat it 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

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 it's 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 fight

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 fight

It doesn't matter who's wrong or right

Just beat it beat it beat it beat it beat it

Beat it beat it beat it beat it

Beat it beat it beat it

Beat it beat it beat it

Beat it beat it beat it

Beat it beat it beat it beat it

No one wants to be defeated

Showin' how funky strong is your fight

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 fight

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 fight

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 fight

It doesn't matter who's wrong or right

　　1982年迈克尔杰克逊24岁时发表了专辑《Thriller（颤栗）》。

　　据2006年底统计，专辑《颤栗》（正版）全球销量已超过7。5亿，为史上销量最高的专辑，被载入“吉尼斯世界记录大全”。

　　2008年，专辑《颤栗》被列入美国国家宝藏，被美国国会图书馆永久收藏。

　　这首《Beatit（避开）》是专辑《颤栗》主打曲之一。由迈克尔杰克逊本人作词、作曲、编曲、演唱。

　　迈克尔杰克逊凭借《BeatIt》获第26届格莱美最佳摇滚男歌手奖。

　　2000年，《BeatIt》被流行音乐杂志《滚石》与MTV音乐电视联合评选为“史上最伟大的100首流行歌曲”第22位。该歌入围了摇滚名人堂史上500首经典之作之一。

　　《BeatIt》是一首反对社会暴力音乐作品。由MichaelJackson(迈克尔·杰克逊)作词作曲并演唱。在其1982年专辑《Thriller》收录的主打歌曲之一。告诫年轻人避免不必要的麻烦，暴力不能解决一切问题，只会伤害到自己。

　　里根总统执政时，看到当时新一辈的孩子们很多打架斗殴，不学无术，甚至吸毒等等，几乎成了垮掉的一代。总统考虑到当年杰克逊在年轻人心中影响力之大，于是找到杰克逊来创作一首歌，希望能通过杰克逊的歌来打动年轻人的心，算是挽救新一辈吧。

　　于是杰克逊就创作了这首歌曲，歌词是打架的歌词，但这是一种反衬。因为这首歌，里根总统在白宫授予杰克逊总统勋章开感谢他做出的努力。

　　关于这首《BeatIt》杰克逊在他的自传里(moonwalk)里是怎样说的：

　　在写《避开》(BeatIt)以前，我就想过我要创作一首能让我愿意到街上去买的摇滚歌曲，但它又要不同于一般的摇滚歌曲，像当时收音机里常播放的最佳歌曲四十首。

　　写《BeatIt》时，我脑海中一直想着学校的孩子们，我一直就喜爱为孩子们创作歌曲，为他们写歌，了解他们的所好，是很有趣的，他们是要求非常高的听众，你可不能糊弄他们。到现在，对我来说，他们仍是最重要的听众，因为我对他们的反应的确很介意，如果他们喜欢一首歌曲，那么它一定很棒，用不着再去看什么评选结果。

　　杰克逊在自传《太空步》中描述道："在《BeatIt》中，我想告诉大家，如果我陷入了困境我会怎样去做。这是一个教训，它告诉我们应该憎恶并放弃暴力，对这点我深信不疑。《BeatIt》告诉孩子们要机警，避免麻烦，我的意思不是说别人打了你的右脸，你再把左脸转过去让人打，我是说，除非你被逼到墙角别无选择了最好避免暴力的发生，赶快溜之大吉。如果你打架受伤甚至死了，那你什么也没得到，反而什么都失去了，你是个失败者，怎么有脸面对那些爱你的人们呢？

这就是《BeatIt》的含意，我认为，真正勇敢而又聪明的人是能和平解决问题的人，他们用的是能和平解决问题的人，他们用的是智慧，而不是暴力。"
