The Best Man - Tyler Barrol

[Intro] (Upbeat, collegiate Pop-Rock guitar, party atmosphere) [Daniel] Tyler! You made it. [Tyler] Wouldn't miss it for the world, Danny. [Daniel] It feels just like the old days at Harvard. [Verse 1 - The Reunion] (Driving, energetic beat) [Tyler] Look at you, you are so perfect, leading such a charmed life. Got the money, the mansion, and the trophy wife. [Daniel] It’s complicated, Ty, you don't know the half of it. [Tyler] Oh, we know way too much about each other, don't we? Brother to brother. [Daniel] That's why I need you here. I need someone I can trust. Someone to help me shake off this Grayson rust. [Pre-Chorus 1] [Daniel] I have a question, and I need you to say yes. [Tyler] For you, Danny? nothing less. [Daniel] I’m getting married. And I need a partner in crime. [Tyler] (Slightly darker tone) Always waiting for you, Danny. All the time. [Daniel] Will you be my best man? [Transition] (Music stops abruptly. Sound of a glass clinking. Silence.) [Tyler] (Spoken, low and creepy) Your Best Man? Alright. [Part 2 - The Villain Turn] (Fast-paced Electro-Swing / Dark Jazz beat kicks in. Aggressive Brass.) [Verse 2 - Tyler] (Fast, sharp delivery) You poor little lamb headed for the slaughter. Speak of the devil, or should I say the devil's daughter? Don't get me started on Emily, I know her type. Believe me, brother, she doesn't live up to the hype. She always hides behind that perfect smile. But I’ve been reading her file! [Chorus] (Big, brassy, chaotic) She is a wolf in sheep's clothing! Fueling my self-loathing! She’s got you wrapped around her finger tighter than a wedding ring! But you don't see a thing! She’s been playing you, brother, playing you for a fool. But I’m gonna break every single rule. I’m the Best Man! Yeah, I’m the Best Man. [Verse 3] (Slower, menacing, leaning in) [Tyler] I have been playing way too nice. Now you're gonna pay the price. Yes, it does appear that you despicable people... Are finally starting to rub off on me. (Tempo speeds up again) We could have been a good team, you and I. But you chose the lie! [Bridge] (Manic, dissonant) [Tyler] How does it feel to be the dumbest guy in the room? Marching towards your doom. You think she loves you? She is not worth it! I’m the only one who deserves it! [Daniel] (Confused background vocal) Tyler, what are you saying? [Tyler] (Aggressive shout) I would watch my mouth if I were you! As pretty as it is... It could get you into more trouble than you can handle! Let's light this scandal! [Chorus] (Maximum Energy, frantic) She is a wolf in sheep's clothing! I'm done with the loathing! She’s got you wrapped around her finger tighter than a wedding ring! I’m gonna ruin everything! Daniel is about to find out... Exactly how bad his taste in women really is! I’m taking what’s his! [Outro] (Music spirals out of control, heavy drums) [Tyler] Emily Thorne... poor little rich girl next door. You might be careful with whom you are dealing with. (Sudden drop to whisper) Waiting for you, Danny. Always waiting for you. [Daniel] (Spoken, oblivious) Thanks, Ty. I knew I could count on you. [End]
