Another One Bites the Dust es una canción perteneciente al género funk rock escrita por John Deacon, bajista de la banda inglesa Queen.
La canción lanzada como sencillo en 1980 y perteneciente al álbum The Game se convirtió rápidamente en el éxito más grande de Queen con ventas internacionales de siete millones de copias.
En un principio la canción no fue incluida en el álbum ya que los integrantes de Queen no la consideraban "lo suficientemente buena" y tampoco pensaban lanzarla como sencillo. Pero Michael Jackson les dijo que estarían locos sino lo hacían e, irónicamente, fue un gran éxito para la banda y su segundo número uno en Estados Unidos.
Steve walks warily down the street,
with the brim pulled way down low
ain't no sound but the sound of his feet,
machine guns ready to go
Are you ready,
are you ready for this
are you hanging on the edge of your seat
out of the doorway the bullets rip
to the sound of the beat
Another one bites the dust
another one bites the dust
and another one gone, and another one gone
another one bites the dust
hey, i'm gonna get you too
another one bites the dust
How do you think i'm going to get along,
without you, when you're gone
you took me for everything that i had,
and kicked me out on my own
Are you happy, are you satisfied
how long can you stand the heat
out of the doorway the bullets rip
to the sound of the beat
Chorus
Another one bites the dust
another one bites the dust
another one bites the dust
another one bites the dust
there are plenty of ways you can hurt a man
and bring him to the ground
you can beat him
you can cheat him
you can treat him bad and leave him
when he's down
but i'm ready, yes i'm ready for you
i'm standing on my own two feet
out of the doorway the bullets rip
repeating the sound of the beat
