⁠[Intro]⁠ (Sharp clave rhythm clacking over a heavy, distorted 808 Trombone: a dirty, aggressive slide like a door slamming shut) ⁠(Whistle) Wake up! wake up wherever you are. ⁠[Verse 1]⁠ ⁠(mischievous)⁠ Dusk falls. A paper bird flies. Watch the walls They Open their eyes. A thousand lynxes awake, Shaking out their limbs— They step out, The pattern dims! ⁠[Pre-Chorus]⁠ ⁠(Bassline builds, staccato vocal rhythm)⁠ Paper beats. Creatures in the blue. They make a mess, And blame it on you. Paper beats. Marching along. Now the whole room Is singing the song! ⁠[Chorus]⁠ Oh, the fox is loose! The petals fly! The sofa shakes as the walls spin by! Unwind the room, ignite the spark— We close the door, they claim the dark! When the sun sets and the daylight falls — We live with creatures on the walls! ⁠[Verse 2]⁠ ⁠(Urgent tribal percussion. Glitch textures)⁠ Footsteps close. The key starts to turn. The fox runs back, To the stilling fern. Cranes dive down, Lynx takes her place, Freeze the frame, Yeah still the face! ⁠[Pre-Chorus]⁠ (Tension peaks. Heavy 808 stomp)⁠ Smooth the lines. Hide all the sparks. Lock up the wild, Erase the marks. Footsteps close. One second more— Somebody’s hand On the door! [Chorus]⁠ ⁠(Maximum energy drop - Cinematic, ecstatic climax)⁠ Oh, the fox is loose! The petals fly! The sofa shakes as the walls spin by! Unwind the room, ignite the spark— We close the door, they claim the dark! When the sun sets and the daylight falls: We live with creatures on the walls. ⁠[Outro]⁠ ⁠(Music suddenly cuts to a single, deep trombone drone)⁠
