[Intro — bass and drums, guitar winding up] One thread. Four holes. Pull tight. ALL: LET'S GO! [Verse 1] We came in crooked, came in late, Four bad moods at the loading gate. One lost shoe and a borrowed amp, Twenty bucks and a busted lamp. Pulled from the left, pulled from the right, Somebody quits every Friday night. Saturday morning, count to ten— Plug the damn thing in again. [Pre-Chorus] Pull us apart, Pull all you like. Funny little things Know how to hold tight. [Chorus] PINK BUTTONS! Holding through the push and pull. PINK BUTTONS! Little things are beautiful. Stretch the seams until they strain, Lose our minds and start again. Four loose threads and one good sound— PINK BUTTONS HOLDS US DOWN! [Verse 2] We've slammed the doors and missed the cue, Said “I'm done” and meant it too. Stolen shirts and broken strings, Fought for all the stupid things. She wants fast and she wants slow, I say yes, somebody says no. Then somebody finds that crooked chord— And nobody remembers what we fought for. [Pre-Chorus] Pull at the edges, Give it your best. Every little tension Just tightens the rest. [Chorus] PINK BUTTONS! Holding through the push and pull. PINK BUTTONS! Never quite invincible. Stretch the seams until they strain, Lose our minds and start again. Four loose threads and one good sound— PINK BUTTONS HOLDS US DOWN! [Instrumental — bass drives, guitars trade riffs] [Bridge — lead] We're not sisters. ALL: Close enough! LEAD: We're not heroes. ALL: Good for us! LEAD: We're not finished. ALL: NOT A CHANCE! LEAD: You want another? ALL: ASK THE BAND! [Drum count — explosive return] [Final Chorus] PINK BUTTONS! Pull until the stitches burn! PINK BUTTONS! Every scar is something earned! Every mile and every stage, Every fight and every page, If the whole damn world comes down— We'll still be making That stupid sound! PINK BUTTONS! [False ending] (one guitar quietly starts the riff again) LEAD, laughing: Oh, come on. [Entire band crashes back in] ALL: PINK! BUT-TONS! PINK! BUT-TONS! Pull it! Push it! Hold it! LOUDER! PINK! BUT-TONS! [Final huge chord — feedback continues] [(from somewhere off-mic)] One more?
