Bandwagon by Static Theory feat. Callum Reyes

[Intro — jittery clean guitar, pulsing synth bass, rapid turntable scratches, tight drum hits; whispered melodic vocals] Jump on the bandwagon Jump on the bandwagon Everybody's doing it So it must be right [Verse 1 — Leo; gritty distorted guitar, driving live drums, dark synth arpeggio, turntable cuts; sardonic, melodic vocals] I see you in the hallway with your brand new crowd Wearing all the right clothes, talking way too loud You used to be a person that I thought I knew Now you're just a copy of the things they told you to do You changed your hair, you changed your friends, you changed your whole damn personality And I'm standing here wondering what happened to the real you, honestly You used to laugh at things that mattered, now you laugh at things that don't You used to have a mind of your own, now you're just a clone I'm not saying I'm perfect, I'm not saying I'm better But at least I'm still myself, at least I'm still together [Pre-Chorus — Leo; guitar swells, drums intensify, synth rises, turntable filter sweep; melodic vocals] Maybe I'm just jealous Maybe I'm just mad Maybe I miss the person That I thought I had [Chorus — Leo with Callum harmonies; heavy melodic guitars, crashing live drums, layered synth, energetic turntable scratches; powerful, defiant vocals] Bandwagon, bandwagon, everybody's jumping on Bandwagon, bandwagon, tell me where you went wrong Bandwagon, bandwagon, don't you miss who you were Bandwagon, bandwagon, I liked you better before [Verse 2 — Callum rap; syncopated palm-muted guitar, punchy live drums, bright synth arpeggio, turntable stutters; raw, rhythmic rap delivery] I seen it happen a thousand times in the Commercial Quarter Kids trading in their souls for a little bit of order Trading in their style for the latest trend Trading in their voice just to fit in with the blend I ain't never been the type to follow any crowd I've been rocking the same boots since I was too loud I've been writing my own words, singing my own songs And I ain't gonna change for nobody's thumbs up So go ahead and jump on, go ahead and ride But when the wagon breaks down, I'll be on the other side With the ones who stayed real, with the ones who stayed true And I'll be standing here wondering where you went to [Pre-Chorus — Leo; rising distorted guitars, stronger drums, swelling synth, turntable rewind; strained melodic vocals] Maybe I'm just jealous Maybe I'm just mad Maybe I miss the person That I thought I had [Chorus — Leo with Callum harmonies; crushing distorted guitars, crashing live drums, thick synth layers, rapid turntable scratches; powerful, defiant vocals] Bandwagon, bandwagon, everybody's jumping on Bandwagon, bandwagon, tell me where you went wrong Bandwagon, bandwagon, don't you miss who you were Bandwagon, bandwagon, I liked you better before [Guitar Solo — punchy defiant guitar solo with sharp bends, energetic runs, biting harmonics and sustained feedback; thunderous live drums, rumbling synth bass and aggressive turntable scratches] [Bridge — Leo; clean guitar arpeggios, sparse drums building, distant synth atmosphere, turntable vinyl crackle; soft, reflective vocals] Maybe I was too quick to judge Maybe you're just trying to find your way Maybe the bandwagon's not so bad If it helps you get through the day But I still miss the person that I knew The one who didn't need to change The one who knew exactly who they were Before the world got strange [Breakdown — Callum rap over low guitar chugs, pounding half-time live drums, distorted synth bass, sharp turntable cuts; intense, shouted rap] So jump on the bandwagon, jump on the ride But don't come looking for me when you're empty inside I'll be with the ones who stayed true to the core The ones who didn't need to be more than they were I ain't jumping on the bandwagon! [Final Chorus — Leo with Callum harmonies; massive guitars, huge live drums, soaring synth, frantic turntable scratches; fierce, defiant vocals] Bandwagon, bandwagon, I'm not jumping on Bandwagon, bandwagon, I'd rather stand alone Bandwagon, bandwagon, I know who I am Bandwagon, bandwagon, I'm not part of your plan Bandwagon, bandwagon, you can keep your trends Bandwagon, bandwagon, I'll keep my friends Bandwagon, bandwagon, I'll stay true to me Bandwagon, bandwagon, that's my destiny [Outro — fading clean guitar harmonics, soft synth pulse, restrained live drums, turntable scratches slowing to silence; whispered melodic vocals] Bandwagon I'll stay true Bandwagon How about you Bandwagon I'm not jumping on Bandwagon I'm moving on
