Drop the Beat

**Drop the Beat** is a song performed by WildSide Cast. It was featured in the background during a few party fantasy scenes in the episode Wild Party. The full version of the song was released as a promotional single the week before the soundtrack's release on April 5, 2013. A music video for the song was also released on YouTube on the same day.

## Lyrics

**[All]**

(Drop the beat!) (x24)

WILD-SIDE!

(Drop the beat!) (x10)

**[Sierra McCormick]**

I wake up in the morning from a huge night's rest

I really want this party to be a huge success

I got the decorations done, I hope it goes to plan

We're gonna have some fun, and make some friends

But there's on thing left to do

One thing left to know

But if we work together we can do it

I know that for sure

**[Zachary Gordon]**

This party's just gettin' sorted

We all know that

But if he work together

We have to do-o-o

**[All]**

When the moon comes up and the windows go down

We turn the music up we turn it up loud

The neighbours come to complain but we don't care

As long as we're happy, as long as it's fair

There's a smile everywhere as we look around

We know we have to break it down on the ground

But somethin' else is missin', what we have to do-o-o

Is drop the beat (drop the beat!)

Drop the beat (drop the beat!)

**[Chloe Moretz]**

There's a guest list, that's all around the corner

We know that well

They know that gettin' in ain't easy

But we get it done, it's so fun

This guest list, is so long

But it's also very excitin'

When we got it goin' we know

It'll all be worth it

**[Kyle Massey]**

This party's not gonna come cheap

We all know that

But we if we stick together

There's one thing to do-o-o

**[All]**

When the moon comes up and the windows go down

We turn the music up we turn it up loud

The neighbours come to complain but we don't care

As long as we're happy, as long as it's fair

There's a smile everywhere as we look around

We know we have to break it down on the ground

But somethin' else is missin', what we have to do-o-o

Is drop the beat (drop the beat!)

Drop the beat (drop the beat!)

**[Rebecca Graham]**

When we wake up in the morning from a huge night's rest

We all want this party to be a huge success

This party's just getting sorted and we know

The guest list is long

The party might not be cheap, but honestly

We shouldn't care

'Cause if we work together

There's one thing to do-o-o

**[Zachary Gordon]**

When the moon comes up and the windows go down

We turn the music up we turn it up loud

The neighbours come to complain but we don't care

As long as we're happy, as long as it's fair

**[All]**

(1, 2, 3... go!)

When the moon comes up and the windows go down

We turn the music up we turn it up loud

The neighbours come to complain but we don't care

As long as we're happy, as long as it's fair

There's a smile everywhere as we look around

We know we have to break it down on the ground

But somethin' else is missin', what we have to do-o-o

Is drop the beat (drop the beat!)

Drop the beat (drop the beat!)

Is drop the beat (drop the beat!)

**[Sierra McCormick]**

Is droppin' the beat (drop the beat!)

**[Zachary Gordon]**

Drop the beat, yeah (drop the beat!)

**[All]**

(fade out)

(Drop the beat!) (repeated)

## Trivia

* The song was originally created as a spiritual successor to WildSide Cast's previous song, Jumpstart from the season before. The stunt wasn't as successful this time around due to lack of promotion. Comedies for Kids decided to shift Season 3's focus to the Wild Luck Charlie crossover instead.
* The full version of the song is over 5 minutes in duration, making it the longest WildSide song to date.
	+ A shorter version of the song can also be found on YouTube, with the 1+ minute long opening "Drop the beat" sequence omitted.
* This is the first WildSide Cast song to have each member sing a verse each. This formula would later be used in the song I'll Be There; with the exclusion of Rebecca.
* In June 2020, WildSide Cast (minus Rebecca) uploaded a "quarantine" performance of this song onto their YouTube channel during the COVID-19 lockdown. The performance featured each member singing their verses over a Zoom call in their own homes.
* In August 2020, over seven years since the song's initial release, Sierra McCormick admitted to being a massive fan of the song during a radio interview, and mentioned that she had it on repeat for at least a week straight.
