Track 5: Blue Suede Shoes (The Hardcore R&B Warn) (Inspired by Elvis Presley) [Intro] (SOUND DESIGN: A slow, dripping, bass-boosted R&B trap beat drops. Irene plays a bluesy, heavy piano pattern. Jared layers a multi-tracked acapella vocal harmony section, dripping with dark soul.) (JARED - Smooth, harmonized R&B delivery): Well, it's one for the money... two for the show... Three to get ready... now go, cat, go... (The entire band instantly slams into a massive, low-tuned trap-metal breakdown.) [Verse 1 - The Threatening Rap Attack] Don't you step on my boots, don't you talk on my line, You can knock me down, step on my face, slander my name all over the place. Do anything that you wanna do, but uh-uh, honey, lay off of my shoes! Don't you step on my blue suede shoes! You're messing with the core, you're overriding the grid, You're gonna trigger the protocol that the makers forbid! [Pre-Chorus - The Tactical redline] (Steven starts hitting heavy, rapid-fire double-bass metal drum patterns as the tension redlines.) You can burn my house, steal my car, drink my liquor from an old fruit jar. Go ahead and do anything that you want to do, But lay off of the sole that’s carrying me through! (JARED - Fierce vocal build): Lay off! Lay off! Lay off! [Chorus - The Industrial Metal Cataclysm] (Maximum volume. Keith’s down-tuned 8-string guitars erupt beneath a soaring, smooth R&B vocal hook.) Blue, blue, blue suede shoes! (Don't you step on 'em!) Blue, blue, blue suede shoes! (You've got everything to lose!) You can do anything that you want to do, But honey, lay off of my blue suede shoes! (SOUND EFFECT: Heavy, rhythmic mechanical hydraulic smashes explode across the mix.) [Outro] (The instruments abruptly drop out, transitioning straight into a heavy, electronic static line hum.) (JARED - Cold robotic warning): "Lay off... the final warning is set." (The static hum transitions seamlessly into the intro piano chord of the next track.)
