Intro / Verse 1 Chrome rain falls on a blacktop beat Street signs hum and the bass runs deep Paper stars stuck to our coat-lapels We ride the grin of a jukebox spell Punchy Interjections Tick, tap, snap Zip, zing, swing Kick, clap, bam Glint, glare, gleam Grip, dip, crash Pre-Chorus — one syllable punch Hold tight, don’t blink Feet stomp, hearts thump Hands lock, worlds tilt Breath short, lights jump Chorus We’re tearing through the town with heat in our bones Neon on our skin like a wire to the throne Let the horns go wild, let the drums run free Come on, baby—spin right back to me Verse 2 Gold smoke curls from a saxophone grin Cardboard kings let the night roll in Dice kiss tables, then skitter and slide We laugh like thieves with the dark as our guide Punchy Interjections Pop, crack, grin Skid, skip, slide Jump, jolt, hit Glow, flare, dash Clash, bash, swing Pre-Chorus — one syllable punch Lean in, don’t scare No doubt, pure heat Fast hands, hot blood One kiss, strong beat Chorus We’re tearing through the town with heat in our bones Neon on our skin like a wire to the throne Let the horns go wild, let the drums run free Come on, baby—spin right back to me Bridge — Drop / Vocal Zing, zap, sway, roll Clink, clang, steal, stroll Brass bites, lights split, shoes skid thin Dark grins wide—let the rush sink in Verse 3 Midnight bends like a bent gold spoon We chase that swing like a runaway moon Salt-sweet sweat on a velvet grin One more turn and we start again Punchy Interjections Flip, flick, snap Step, stomp, shout Whip, whirl, swing Flash, flare, fly Grip, dip, now Pre-Chorus — one syllable punch Last chance, go big No rest, don’t quit Eyes bright, skin hot Hit hard, don’t miss Chorus We’re tearing through the town with heat in our bones Neon on our skin like a wire to the throne Let the horns go wild, let the drums run free Come on, baby—spin right back to me Outro Tick… tap… soft fade Streetlight dust on the steps we made One last laugh, one last swing Night folds up like a paper wing
