At last he's asleep
Now to give him what he deserves
we can work it out
here in New York here in New York here in New York City
here in New York here in New York here in New York City
here in New York here in New York here in New York City
the beat of the drum
the beat of the drum
the beat of the drum [distorted]

Here's a second
For 40 years our people lived with hope, now there's no hope
There's nothing we face that he cannot handle
put your head right
put your head right
put your head
put your head right
put your head
put your head
put your head right next to my heart
Here's a second
here in New York here in New York here in New York City
here in New York City
[voices]
the beat [repeated over and over]
You stand in the doorway, and if anyone comes to inquire tell them there is no one here
James Brown [x40]
my features form with a change in the weather
weekend
(we can work it out)
my features form with a change in the weather
better late than never
there's a change in the weather
when the wind blows
when the mothers talk
when the wind blows
when the wind blows
when the mothers talk
when the wind blows
(we can, only we can work it out)
James Brown (x22)

The 'Beat Of The Drum Mix' of Mothers Talk is one of the more bizarre remixes in the TFF catalog, thus it gets its own page. This was found on most 12" Mothers Talk singles, as well as a deluxe Canadian EP where the song was simply called 'The Beat Of The Drum'.
In an act of sheer boredom, I've made an attempt to transcribe all of the random soundbites throught this mix. Samples are in italics, lyrics are in plain text. Some may be inaccurate. If you can offer help, please do. Thank you.
