[Intro] [Bright synth Lead] [Upbeat Drum Beat Enters] [Verse 1] [Playful Synth Bass] They put me through the seminar, they taught me all the rules A hunter for the factory, equipped with specialized tools I know the quiet wetlands where it’s safe to take my shot Scanning through the reeds to find the stickiest of the lot Mallards make for heavy grip, teal is light and slick You gotta know your waterfowls to make the backing stick It’s a specialized trade, requires a careful eye To harvest all the holdin' power soaring through the sky! [Pre-Chorus] [Build-up Drum Snare Roll] [Bass Rises] [Chorus] [Full Instrumentation] [Catchy Vocal Melody] Oh, roll it out, tear it off, lock it down tight! The strongest hold you’ve ever seen, keeping things right! From the silver roll to the quack on the lake It’s a tough line of work for the silver tape’s sake! Yeah, it’s sticky, it’s tough, it’s a silver-backed dream Holding the whole wide world at the seams! [Interlude] [Short Synth Riff] [Verse 2] [Playful Synth Bass] Now my knees are getting weary and my eyes are growing dim Standing in the chilly swamp, out upon the limb Next month is my retirement, I’ll hang my duck call high And watch the flock keep flying past under the autumn sky I’m gonna miss the wetlands, the morning early glow Yeah, I’m gonna miss the ducks—more than they’ll ever know! Half the time I pulled the trigger, my aim was way off target So I guess I’ll miss 'em both ways when I leave the tape market! [Pre-Chorus] [Build-up Drum Snare Roll] [Chorus] [Full Instrumentation] [Catchy Vocal Melody] Oh, roll it out, tear it off, lock it down tight! The strongest hold you’ve ever seen, keeping things right! From the silver roll to the quack on the lake It’s a tough line of work for the silver tape’s sake! Yeah, it’s sticky, it’s tough, it’s a silver-backed dream Holding the whole wide world at the seams! [Bridge] [Breakdown] [Groovy Bass and Drums only] [Vocal Style: Spoken, Frustrated, Rhythmic] Now the protestors show up with signs at the bay Chanting "Stop killing ducks for the tape of the day!" They don't understand the craft, they don't know the grind Ruining my livelihood, messing with my mind! They think it grows on trees! They think it’s just a brand! [Shouted] Try fixing up a leaky pipe without a duck in hand! [Guitar Solo] [Funky Synth-Guitar Solo] [High Energy] [Chorus] [Maximum Energy] [Full Instrumentation] Oh, roll it out, tear it off, lock it down tight! The strongest hold you’ve ever seen, keeping things right! From the silver roll to the quack on the lake It’s a tough line of work for the silver tape’s sake! Yeah, it’s sticky, it’s tough, it’s a silver-backed dream Holding the whole wide world at the seams! [Outro] [Fade Out] Roll it out, tear it off... Gotta get that sticky hold... Yeah, I'm gonna miss those ducks... [Final Stinger Beat] [End]
