Pretty Loud

V6-WILD

[INTRO — CLEAN GUITAR, CAMERA SHUTTER] Hold still Smile Maybe look a little— [DISTORTED GUITAR CRASH] No [VERSE 1 — CONTROLLED, RHYTHMIC VOCAL] Lip gloss shining Boots on the floor Walked in sweet Then I kicked down the door You saw the dress Thought you knew the whole story Pretty little picture Standing still for your glory You said “Don’t make a scene” What do you call Everything you did to me? You get to talk I’m supposed to look nice? That arrangement Didn’t survive tonight [PRE-CHORUS — DRUMS BUILD] I can cross my legs I can raise my voice I can wear pink And still make noise Turn that little warning All the way up You wanted pretty— Here it comes [CHORUS — EXPLOSIVE POP-ROCK] I’m pretty loud Pretty damn loud You can hear me coming Before I hit the crowd Hair done right But the volume maxed out I don’t need permission To take up space now Pretty loud Let the whole room shake Every time you tell me I’m a little too much I get a little louder Just to clear things up I’m pretty Pretty Pretty loud [POST-CHORUS — STACKED SHOUTS] Turn it up Pretty loud Turn it up Can you hear me now? [VERSE 2 — HEAVIER GUITARS] You like confidence When it agrees with you Like a strong woman With nothing strong to do Want a little fire But safely contained Something you can hold Without feeling the flame That’s cute But I don’t come small Don’t wear these boots Just to lean on the wall If the room gets tense When I speak my mind Maybe the room Was built the wrong size [PRE-CHORUS] I can paint my nails I can make my choice I can look soft With a stadium voice Turn that little warning All the way up You wanted pretty— Here it comes [CHORUS] I’m pretty loud Pretty damn loud You can hear me coming Before I hit the crowd Hair done right But the volume maxed out I don’t need permission To take up space now Pretty loud Let the whole room shake Every time you tell me I’m a little too much I get a little louder Just to clear things up I’m pretty Pretty Pretty loud [GUITAR BREAK — RIFF BUILDS INTO DRUM SOLO] [BACKGROUND CHANTS] Loud Loud Loud [BRIDGE — STRIPPED TO BASS AND VOCAL] I tried being easy Tried being polite Tried swallowing words Just to keep things light But silence never fit No matter how I wore it So if you want the truth— [PAUSE] You’re gonna hear me roar it [HIGH BELT] I WON’T TURN DOWN! [FULL BAND SLAMS IN] [FINAL CHORUS — KEY CHANGE] I’m pretty loud Pretty damn loud You can hear me singing Over everyone now Hair came loose And the makeup ran down Still look good With the whole place shaking Pretty loud Let the speakers break Every time you tell me I’m a little too much I get a little louder And I call your bluff I’m pretty Pretty Pretty loud [FINAL REFRAIN — CROWD CHANT] Pretty loud Pretty loud Sweet face Big sound Pretty loud Pretty loud Try and turn me down Pretty loud Pretty loud Whole room Right now [OUTRO — FEEDBACK RINGS] You wanted quieter? [PAUSE] Wrong girl
