[Intro] (Scratch-scratch vinyl screech!) (Hype: YYYYYEEEEEAAAAAHHHHH BOYEEEEE!) (Heavy police sirens, distorted abrasive funk loop kicks in) (Hype: Turn it up! Bass in your face! Check it!) [Spoken] This is I-la washburn, unfiltered, untethered, and unleashed. Laying down the truths. The DEEP kind, about a bunch of people you might know. The Collective. Now, would someone PLEASE get a girl a fucking backbeat. (Hype: DROP IT!) [Verse 1] They call ‘em THE COLLECTIVE, their beats are INFECTIVE (Hype: SICK BEATS!) A movement, promoting improvement, their members are family. Carry each other throughout all adversity. A lyrical commune regardless of genre Backing each other with justice and honour (Hype: THAT'S RIGHT!) Pushing the limit of new technology Constant improvement is the ideology Word up to Whitenoise the technical king (Hype: HEY! BOW DOWN!) He's done you a poster before you thought of the thing. His music is burning, beats pyroclastic You'll never skip him, no one is that drastic. (Hype: TOO HOT! DON'T SKIP IT!) [Chorus] C. It's connective O. It's original L. It's loving and loyal E. It's exceptional C. It's charismatic T. It's terrific i. It's infectious V. It's Venerated E. It's edge of your seat stuff (Hype: GET UP ON YOUR FEET!) [Verse 2] There's sick Ruby the queen of punk (Hype: ALL HAIL) A hundred personas from techno to funk And every one rocks, she don't put out no junk. Invader Jim, the man with no face (Hype: WHERE HE AT?!) The rumour is out there, he's an alien race He's always on livestream but still finds the time To make banger on banger of subliminal rhymes (Hype: MIND GAMES!) There's Zephyr the dragon, sounds weird but it's true We got us a kaiju plugged into pro-tools (Hype: ROAR!) Then me, Try-emrys, Reaper reacts: The Lothians Crew. Repping for Scotland as only we can No-Vey the mom-Ay with her demon spawn Whose out Zayling Zayl by remixing his songs (HYPE: GO LIL NO-VAY!) [Chorus] C. It's connective O. It's original L. It's loving and loyal E. It's exceptional C. It's charismatic T. It's terrific i. It's infectious V. It's Venerated E. It's edge of your seat stuff [verse 3] Frequency got no decency, he's all about them titties he's got them all over chat like glittery bitties And Darkness Endured, sublime and demure does more clipping than a bioware game girl got no shame (hype: NO SHAME!) We got Eris of Discord, And Mis'ry of Mayhem Our own Princess Lia, Cyborg, Footaba (HYPE: OH SHEEEEEEEE) Egon the boffin, workin that back end (HYPE: STOP SNIGGERING!) And so many others I don't have time to shame So many legends all under one name The true definition of destined for fame. (Hype: WORLDWIDE!) [Chorus] C. It's connective O. It's original L. It's loving and loyal E. It's exceptional C. It's charismatic T. It's terrific i. It's infectious V. It's Venerated E. It's edge of your seat stuff (Hype: RUN IT BACK!) [Chorus] C. It's connective O. It's original L. It's loving and loyal E. It's exceptional C. It's charismatic T. It's terrific i. It's infectious V. It's Venerated E. It's edge of your seat stuff [Outro] So that's the collective so pay up your dues You try to deny them you're destined to lose. (Hype: PAY UP! NO CHANCE!) Let's fucking go! (Hard chaotic bomb squad wall of noise explosion, police siren wail) (Hype: AHAHAHA! YEAH BOY! CAN'T DENY THE SOUND! WE OUT!) LET'S FUCKING GO!!!! LET'S FUCKING GO!!!!!!!!! (Abrupt vinyl stop)
