It's All In the Mask

singing in a muffled voice, a PAWSA style EDM dance remix of a a post punk track, deadpan vocals, whispering voices, raw, sarcasm, clever word flow, 95 bpm

V5.5

[Chorus]
it's all in the mask, all in the mask,
ask me who a am n watch me change for the task,
we all wearin' summat, we all puttin' it on,
but at least a know am fake, that's the difference, son.
it's all in the mask, all in the mask,
peel one off, n reveal ya past
what's at the bottom, coz I reckon there's nowt,
just a face we forgot, that we never figured out.

well ya asked, an I'll answer ya, it's all in the mask on ya,
in a different face, the only thing I recognise
is the place, an the space that I'm in 
n al walk it wi grace till am him
everything else is just a mask, paper-thin 
but I'm wearin' it, I'm in it, n a see straight through it.

there'll be a lip-shop soon where ya can buy some new lips,
an a face-shop next door  yea, where ya can purchase new bits,
an while I'm at it, fuck it, I'll buy mi'sen some new hips
an a tongue with a lisp so i can "stalk slike sthissss"
new teeth all white n crisp, a smile that's never been kissed,
a past that weren't broken, a name off a list 
but they don't sell that, do they? they just sell the shell,
a prettier mask for the same sad hotel.

it's all in the mask, all in the mask,
ask me who a am n watch me change for the task,
we all wearin' summat, we all puttin' it on,
but at least a know am fake, that's the difference, son.
it's all in the mask, all in the mask,
peel one off, n reveal ya past
what's at the bottom, coz I reckon there's nowt,
just a face we forgot, that we never figured out.

who am I? who am I?
(whoever ya need)
who am I? who am I?
(whoever ya need)
…haven't a clue.
