[Intro: Rhodes piano with french ambient pad and swamp guitar] Verse 1 (Glitter rock drums with drum machine accents) Got the look down to a science Every thread is in its place Designer labels tell the story But there's nothing underneath the face Pre-Chorus (Fuzz guitar with vintage synth bass and arpeggiator) All flash and no substance All show and no soul Looking good on the surface But there's nothing in the hole Chorus (Pedal steel with lush harmonies and analog delay) Nothing but style No heart behind the pose (Heart behind the pose) Nothing but style And everybody knows You can dress it up in silver You can wrap it up in gold Nothing but style Gets old [Instrumental break: Swamp guitar solo with vocoder and sequenced basslines] Verse 2 (Hammond organ with mid-tempo stomp and drum machine) Talks the talk with perfect timing Knows the words but not the song Walks the walk with such precision But the direction's always wrong Pre-Chorus (Analog delay guitar with ambient swells and arpeggiator) All polish, no passion All form, no function here Looking slick as a whistle But the whistle's got no air Chorus (Full harmonies with vintage effects and glitter drums) Nothing but style No heart behind the pose (Heart behind the pose) Nothing but style And everybody knows You can dress it up in silver You can wrap it up in gold Nothing but style Gets old Bridge (Rhodes and analog synth duet with vocoder and french ambient) Style without substance Is just a pretty lie Like a painting with no canvas Or a song with no why Final Chorus (Full arrangement with all vintage effects) Nothing but style But style ain't everything (Ain't everything) Nothing but style Can't make the angels sing You can dress it up in silver You can wrap it up in gold Nothing but style Leaves you cold [Outro: French ambient and swamp guitar fade with drum machine]
