V5.5

[Intro] (Sound of a roaring country crowd, boots stomping on wooden floors, then a massive explosion sound effect) (Heavy electronic bass drop cuts through the crowd noise) Gruene Hall? More like yesterday's news. Hyper-Link. Turn off the fiddle. Fire up the servers. Let's burn this vintage market down. [Verse 1] Stepping through the doors of this old wooden shack No AC running, yeah you're decades back Sweating through your denim, listening to a twang While I’m re-wiring the system with a brand new gang You love the history, you love the screen doors I see a fire hazard on these dusty floors I’m bringing the sparks, I’m bringing the heat Replacing George Strait with a cyber-trap beat They call it a landmark, I call it a tear-down Gonna build a techno club and run this whole town! [Chorus] No Service! Gruene Hall is on fire! Melting the history, raising the wire! No Service! Burn it to the ground! There’s a new developer running this town! Disconnect the past, clear out the floor You won't be dancing in the dark no more! [Verse 2] Look at these photos hanging on the wall Legends of the country, yeah I’m deleting them all Your cowboy boots can’t handle the rhythm I bring I’m hacking the stage where the troubadours sing The floorboards are creaking, they’re ready to break Just wait till you feel the bass tremor I make No Wi-Fi password, no signal inside It’s a digital dead-zone where you try to hide But I’m bringing the torches, the code, and the flame By tomorrow morning, you’ll forget the name! [Chorus] No Service! Gruene Hall is on fire! Melting the history, raising the wire! No Service! Burn it to the ground! There’s a new developer running this town! Disconnect the past, clear out the floor You won't be dancing in the dark no more! [Instrumental Break] (A 30-second extended, chaotic electronic synth solo with heavy distortion and siren sound effects to pads out the runtime) [Verse 3] Now the smoke is rising over Hunter Road The old wooden rafters can't handle the load Investors are calling, the permits approved The cowboy culture has officially been moved No more cold longnecks, no acoustic guitar Just a LED matrix and a high-end bar I’m paving the parking lot, charging a fee To look at the ashes of your history Comal is weeping, he's losing his crown While my concrete mixers are circling the town! [Bridge] (Music slows down, heavy half-time electronic beat) No bars on your phone. No bars in the hall. Watch the empire fall. Watch the empire fall. (Beat builds up rapidly with ticking hi-hats) Burn it down! [Chorus] No Service! Gruene Hall is on fire! Melting the history, raising the wire! No Service! Burn it to the ground! There’s a new developer running this town! Disconnect the past, clear out the floor You won't be dancing in the dark no more! [Outro] (Sound of wood crackling, fire alarms, and a heavy techno kick fading out) Zero bars. Total blackout. Rest in peace, country music. Hyper-Link out. (Digital power-down sound) [END], [END], [END].
