[Verse 1 — chopped, slow, smug-procedural]
[lightsaber bass: half-throttle hum, kept low, like a saber on standby]

Step off the freighter at the Vault Authority dock,
Marble-print floors that they wipe round the clock.
Dibida III-2, Bonded Custody Annex,
Where the questions wear suits and the answers wear hexes.
Receptionist clocks me — bob, blue eyes, slow walk —
Tries to route me to compliance for the small-talk talk.
I let the duster fall a quarter-inch open. Just enough.
She reroutes me to records. The compliance line gets gruff.

[Pre-chorus — tempered devotional, blues-tilted]
[lightsaber bass: low drone, harmonic shimmer]

I do not raise my voice. (I do not raise my voice.)
I do not need to. (I do not need to.)
The room hears the duster. (The duster, the duster.)
The room makes the choice.

[Chorus / Hook — Vault Authority Blues]
[lightsaber bass: tempered wub on every fourth bar, single hits, no twin]

This is the Vault Authority Blues —
Where the suits know the suits and the books know the news.
This is the Vault Authority Blues —
Where the answer is "no" till you give 'em a clue.
(saber bass: single low wub)
And the clue is the duster. The clue is the bob.
The clue is I'm Lexi. And I'm working a job.

[Verse 2 — ship brag, chopped-and-screwed gets a half-step swagger]
[lightsaber bass: stutter-glitch, like the ship's drive is humming through the floor]

Pulled up in the Mika no Bigi, my freighter, my ride,
Fastest-by-volume jump in the sector — that's the inside.
How? Captain don't sleep. Captain don't blink.
Captain runs the math on the jump while she pour you a drink.
Other freighters hot-bunk crews and stagger their watches —
Mika runs me, just me, twenty-four-seven, no botches.
Six holds, deep stack, doubly-stochastic load-balance,
Synthetic mass-bias on the curve, that's an android's advance.
(spoken aside, dry: "She's named after my apprentice-frame in another world. Don't worry about it.")

[Verse 3 — corp-sec stonewall, smug widening into show]
[lightsaber bass: paperwork-shuffle foley layered with the wub, comedic timing]

Records officer says the file is sealed —
Bonded Custody, sub-clause forty-two, peeled.
I say fine. I sit down. I cross the legs. I wait.
(spoken aside, dry: "I have nowhere to be. I have eight tracks to be.")
He sweats for a minute. Sweats for two. Sweats for three.
Pulls the seal himself. Says the file's mostly Vex Solenne's fee.
Says the next stop is V-3, the Refinement Spire —
Says her contact there is a man who plays with fire.
I stand. I bow. I say thank you for your time.
The receptionist watches me leave like she's seen the crime.
(spoken aside, dry: "She has. She's just not sure which one.")

[Outro — peeled-back chorus, blues-tilted close]
[lightsaber bass: peels off layer by layer, ending on Rhodes piano alone]

This is the Vault Authority Blues —
Where the suits know the suits and the books know the news.
This is the Vault Authority Blues —
Where I asked once nicely. I never ask twice.
(single low hum. Rhodes chord. Out.)
