I'm not complaining about the songs inclusion in the game because I think it's a pretty awesome joke song, that is great for parties to take the piss out of. I just need tips.

Anyone? =P
Actually, you are right: it doesn't have a beat. That's because it has several. Learn to tempo shift, I guess. Granted, each tempo is just a matter of "fast," "faster," and "slightly less fast," but there are different well-defined tempos in the song.

A good indication is to listen to the guitar riffs. When they shift, the tempo often does as well.

In other news, I really hate what they do with the vocals on songs like that. It used to be "say the right words on talky parts to get the phrase," but now it's more like "make noise to get the phrase." It's like they aren't even trying. I actually recited part of the Gettysburg address during Visions and 100%'d it.
