(Intro) (Heavy side-chained bass kicks in immediately. A synthesized robotic voice glitches) Red. Yellow. Green. Go. Red. Yellow. Green. No. (Drum fill—snare roll builds up) (Verse 1) Asphalt shimmering, the city’s awake I got a fever that I just can’t shake Pedal to the metal in a velvet car We don’t know who we are, but we know where we are Gridlock dancing on the painted lines I’m reading signals but I missed the signs You look at me like I’m a crash test dummy The air is sticky and the beat tastes gummy. (Pre-Chorus) (Bass drops out. Synth pads swell like a siren) Wait. Hold up. Did the color change? Everything is looking little strange. Freeze frame. Say my name. Are we driving or playing a game? (Chorus) (Explosion of sound. Very punchy, chanted vocals) Hit the breaks, keep it tight (Stop! All night.) Chew the rhythm up, it fits just right (BeBop Big bites.) Freezing in the flash of the halogen white (Stop! Stoplight.) Yeah, you got me stuck in the middle of the flight (Stop! All night. BeBop Big bites. Stop! Stoplight.) (Verse 2) (Minimal beat, bass groove carries it) Traffic is jamming inside of my head Did you hear what I said? Or was it something I read? Blink once for yes, blink twice for no Current is electric and ready to flow I’m snacking on the static, I’m hungry for the noise Glitter on the pavement, broken up toys Don’t tell me to move, don’t tell me to stay I’m eating up the night in a major way. (Pre-Chorus) (Synthesizer pitch bends upward) Wait. Hold up. Did the color change? Everything is looking little strange. Freeze frame. Say my name. Are we driving or playing a game? (Chorus) (Maximum Energy) Hit the breaks, keep it tight (Stop! All night.) Chew the rhythm up, it fits just right (BeBop Big bites.) Freezing in the flash of the halogen white (Stop! Stoplight.) Yeah, you got me stuck in the middle of the flight (Stop! All night. BeBop Big bites. Stop! Stoplight.) (Bridge) (Tempo seems to slow down, half-time drum beat) Yellow... (Caution, caution) Yellow... (We’re exhausting) I’m standing in the intersection looking for a clue The world is turning grey, but the light is turning blue? (Spoken, whispered close to the mic) Take a big bite. Take a big bite. (Scream) GO! (Guitar Solo / Synth Breakdown) (Fast arpeggios, chaotic noise, laser sound effects) (Chorus) (Drums double time) Hit the breaks, keep it tight (Stop! All night.) Chew the rhythm up, it fits just right (BeBop Big bites.) Freezing in the flash of the halogen white (Stop! Stoplight.) Yeah, you got me stuck in the middle of the flight (Stop! All night. BeBop Big bites. Stop! Stoplight.) (Outro) (Beat continues but elements start stripping away) BeBop. (Big bites.) BeBop. (Big bites.) Red light. (Music cuts abruptly to silence) Stop.
