The Beat Is So Crazy

Lyrics

(Eve:)
Some nights all alone
Thoughts of you coming creepy in
Temporarily and say 'cause you'll never gonna change
No!
We had good times with the bad
Always out with what we had
Keep your pride, I'm not mad
Make me feel like love's a fad
I'd always thought
We'd be happily forever

(Madonna:)
The beat is so crazy
It makes me wanna let go
And totally forget the day
I'm better off anyway

(Eve:)
Never thought I
Was the type to hang around
Lied to myself constantly
About the person I thought you would be
Who's to blame, I guess it's me
I caused my own misery
Tit for tat, this and that
I needed my own life back
Now here I am,
I'm so happy it's time to move on!

(Madonna:)
The beat is so crazy
It makes me wanna let go
And totally forget the day
I'm better off anyway

(Eve:)
We had, we had, we had, we had good times with the bad
Always out with what we had
Keep your pride, I'm not mad
Make me feel like love's a fad
I'd always thought
We'd be happily forever
I'd always thought (what you want her to do?) now here I am
I'd always thought (why can't you listen?) we'd be happily forever

(Madonna:)
The beat is so crazy
It makes me wanna let go
And totally forget the day
I'm better off anyway

Song

Madonna and Pharrell recorded this demo in 2007 for the Hard Candy album, but didn't use it. It was given to Eve, who recorded her own version, featuring Madonna on the chorus. Eve considered the song for her album 'Here I Am' but scrapped it in the end too. The song remains unreleased, but the demo version leaked in August 2014.
