“Shockwave City”

“Shockwave City” [Intro – low whisper + single guitar note] [whisper] Shock… shock… shockwave… [BOOM – full band explodes] YEEEAAAH! [Verse 1 – stop-start riff] Walking down the street— (STOP!) Hear the thunder beat— (STOP!) Voices in the dark, screaming SHOCKWAVE CITY! Fire in my eyes— (STOP!) Lightning in disguise— (STOP!) Every step I take, BOOM-BOOM, SHOCKWAVE HITS ME! [Pre-Chorus – whisper then shout] [whisper] Can you feeeel it? [shout] CAN YOU FEEL IT?! [Chorus – stretched + crowd echo] Shockwave, SHOCKWAVE (echo: “shockwave!”) Burn it down, burn it down (echo: “burn it down!”) Shockwave, SHOCKWAVE (echo: “shockwave!”) Tear the city to the ground! [Verse 2 – drums only + rap-style vocal] Boom-boom, tick-tack, hear the track explode, Steel wheels rolling on a devil’s road. No fear, no chain, breakin’ every rule, Shockwave City’s gonna bury the fools! [Pre-Chorus – half-sung, half-spoken] Turn it up— up— up— (UP!) Break it down— down— down— (DOWN!) [Chorus – stretched + echoes again] Shockwave, SHOCKWAVE (echo: “shockwave!”) Burn it down, burn it down (echo: “burn it down!”) Shockwave, SHOCKWAVE (echo: “shockwave!”) Tear the city to the groooouuund! [Bridge – whisper + sudden scream] [whisper] Wait for it… wait for it… [PAUSE – complete silence 2 sec] [scream] YEEEAAAH! [Guitar Solo – wild bends + whammy, dirty blues licks] [Final Chorus – double tempo, chaos] Shockwave, SHOCKWAVE! Burn it down, burn it down! Shockwave, SHOCKWAVE! TEAR THE CITY TO THE GROUND! [Outro – sudden cut, only vocal left] [whisper → scream] Shock… waaaave… CITY!
