[NDC] Velvet Apocalypse
NDC Week 20/73 Genre: Acid Jazz Crunk Theme: The King ############################### [Intro] Ladies and gentlemen… Bow for the king… WHAT?! WHAT?! VELVET APOCALYPSE! [Verse 1] Gold on the ceiling, smoke in the air, Whole damn kingdom acting like I care. Velvet on the throne, diamonds on my cane, Jazz in my blood and thunder in my veins. Saxophone sinner with a crunk parade, Royal bodyguards in purple suede. Every little scandal just feeds the flame, History screaming my ridiculous name. [Pre-Chorus] Silk and sin… The walls grow thin… The king keeps dancing… While the world caves in… [Chorus] GET LOW FOR THE KING! HEY! GET LOW FOR THE CROWN! HEY! Whole damn palace shaking to the sound! Brass so loud make the chandeliers swing, Velvet apocalypse—LONG LIVE THE KING! [Verse 2] Tiger skin couches and electric wine, Disco priests preaching “everything’s fine.” Meanwhile the streets outside catch fire, But the royal band just plays louder and higher. 808 earthquakes cracking the floor, Grandma crowd surfing through the ballroom door. Somebody’s duke just stole the queen, Nobody notices over the tambourine. [Bridge] A kingdom built on rhythm cannot fall… It can only… groove differently… [Breakdown] WHAT?! WHAT?! TURN THAT HORN UP! HEY! HEY! BURN THE DANCE FLOOR DOWN! Gold teeth! Velvet robes! Funky king! Heavy loads! Gold teeth! Velvet robes! EVERYBODY LOSE CONTROL! [Final Chorus] GET LOW FOR THE KING! HEY! GET LOW FOR THE CROWN! HEY! Funk so filthy shake the whole town down! Saxophone screaming while the empire swings, Velvet apocalypse—LONG LIVE THE KING! [Outro] “…your majesty… the palace is on fire…” LONG LIVE THE KING… LONG LIVE THE KING…
