Beat it

Meaning:

Go away immediately.

If you say "Beat it" to someone, you tell him/her to leave quickly because he/she is annoying. This is an impolite command.

 

Example:

I guess we should beat it before she comes back.

"This is not your place. Beat it!" (This is not a polite way to ask someone to leave.)
