[Intro] [Squealing guitar harmonics, tapping intro] [Huge gated snare hits] [Synth pad underneath] [Hair metal excess begins] [Verse 1] [Glam rock strut, mid-tempo groove] [Vocals with attitude, slightly nasally 80s style] [Guitar chugging with palm mutes] Leather pants and a leopard-print vest Stacked heels, makeup, looking my best The mirror says I'm ready for the stage tonight Ten cans of hairspray and the spotlight's bright We're living large, living loud, living free Sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll on MTV [Pre-Chorus] [Building with synth stabs] [Drums getting bigger, more dramatic] Turn it up to eleven, let the speakers blow! We're the kings of the night and we run the show! [Chorus] [HUGE 80s anthem, power ballad energy but faster] [Soaring vocals, harmonized guitars] [Synth strings underneath] HAIRSPRAY AND THUNDER! LIVING THE DREAM! HAIRSPRAY AND THUNDER! NOTHING'S WHAT IT SEEMS! WE'RE TOO FAST, TOO LOUD, TOO WILD TO TAME! HAIRSPRAY AND THUNDER! REMEMBER THE NAME! WHOA-OH-OH! HAIRSPRAY AND THUNDER! WHOA-OH-OH! TEARING IT ASUNDER! [Verse 2] [Same groove, more swagger] [Talk-box guitar effects] Sold-out shows from LA to Tokyo Backstage chaos, but you'll never know We make it look easy with our rock star pose But the higher we climb, the harder it goes Gold records on the wall, champagne on ice Living this life, yeah, we're rolling the dice [Pre-Chorus] [Same build, more energy] Crank the amps, let the feedback scream! We're living proof of the American dream! [Chorus] [Even BIGGER, more over-the-top] HAIRSPRAY AND THUNDER! LIVING THE DREAM! HAIRSPRAY AND THUNDER! NOTHING'S WHAT IT SEEMS! WE'RE TOO FAST, TOO LOUD, TOO WILD TO TAME! HAIRSPRAY AND THUNDER! REMEMBER THE NAME! WHOA-OH-OH! HAIRSPRAY AND THUNDER! WHOA-OH-OH! TEARING IT ASUNDER! [Guitar Solo] [Shredding virtuoso style] [Two-handed tapping, dive bombs] [Technical but melodic] [Whammy bar abuse, harmonic squeals] [Bridge] [Power ballad slow-down] [Acoustic guitar and synth pad] [Emotional delivery] They say we're just a fashion They say we'll fade away But the thunder keeps on rolling And the hairspray's here to stay We might look like a circus But we play like we mean it We're hairspray and thunder And you better believe it [Final Chorus] [Maximum 80s excess] [Key change up one step] [Everyone singing] HAIRSPRAY AND THUNDER! LIVING THE DREAM! HAIRSPRAY AND THUNDER! NOTHING'S WHAT IT SEEMS! WE'RE TOO FAST, TOO LOUD, TOO WILD TO TAME! HAIRSPRAY AND THUNDER! REMEMBER THE NAME! WHOA-OH-OH! (HAIRSPRAY AND THUNDER!) WHOA-OH-OH! (REMEMBER THE NAME!) [Outro] [Guitar harmonics and feedback] [Gated snare echoing] [Fade out on sustained high note]
