Hush, Hush—Hear Me Roar

V6

[Intro: Japanese Idol Pop; 75 BPM; Low Whispered Lead; Solo Piano; Steady Pulse] I mend the birds That sing in boxes. Inside my ribs... A giant knocks. [Brief Silence] [Verse 1: Bebop; Extremely Rapid Rhythmic Lead; Clipped Syllables; Trumpet Accents] Tick-tack, click-clack, pin in a tin, Wind that little silver wing. Quick fix, neat stitch, bring it back— Nobody hears my ceiling crack. Small shop, soft shoes, sweet little smile, I keep my thunder stacked in files. At six, doors shut, lights burn blue— I sing the screws a turn or two. Glass shakes, floor wakes, what was that? Just my voice beneath my hat. [Hard Cut] [Pre-Chorus: Polka; Normal Vocal Pacing; Bouncing Steady Groove] Tonight the clockwork band breaks down, The dancers stop and turn around. I leave my little chair behind— A different gear begins to wind. [Brief Silence] [Chorus: Metalcore; Explosive Full-Band Entrance; Soaring Melodic Lead] Hush, hush—hear me roar! I've got a sky behind this door. Velvet thunder, bright and strange, My quiet has a wider range. [Lead: Sudden Deep Low Register] Down where the floorboards shake— [Lead: Soaring High Register] Up where the glass stars break! Hush, hush—hear me roar! [Backing Response: Distant and Brief] Hear her roar! [Hard Cut] [Rap: Japanese Idol Pop; 150 BPM; Extremely Rapid Lead; Clear Consonants] Bit of brass, bit of bass, Big surprise in a small workspace. Zip my lip? Nope, not quite. Soft by day with a storm at night. Tap that cap, snap that clasp, Let that buried rhythm blast. Not a glitch, not a trick, That's my pulse in the tick-tick-tick.
