Lost Sock Serenade

72 BPM, 4/4, E-flat major, mellow lo-fi hip hop with soft vocals, Dusty laid-back swung drums with a soft thumping kick and a muted brushed snare, warm vinyl crackle, gentle tape hiss and wobble, a mellow jazzy electric piano playing lazy seventh chords, a soft round bass line, a quiet nylon-string guitar loop, a low hum like washing machines, Vocals: one male vocalist, about 26, soft, hushed and sleepy, half-sung close to the microphone, a gentle humming melody on the chorus, no harmonies, Mix: warm, cosy and lo-fi, drums dusty and soft, keys slightly detuned, bass round, vocal intimate and dry, Arrangement: crackle and electric piano intro, beat drops softly, first verse, chorus, short instrumental loop, second verse, chorus, quiet bridge with guitar, final chorus, fading outro into crackle and hum, Calm, tender, late-night and cosy, No woo, no whoo, no woo-hoo, no whoops, no ad-libs, no shouts, no gang chants, no crowd noise, no screaming, No living-artist names, ‑woo, ‑whoo, ‑woo-hoo, ‑whoops, ‑ad-libs, ‑shouts, ‑crowd noise, ‑gang chants, ‑screaming, ‑living-artist names

[Intro] [Verse 1] Two a.m. and the dryers spin Got a pocket full of coins and a coat pulled in Vending machine with its soft blue glow Humming like a song that I used to know Plastic chairs and a magazine Oldest one that I've ever seen Nobody here but the lights and me And a quiet kind of company [Chorus] Lost sock serenade Round and round the cycles play Little things that someone left behind Fold them up and treat them kind Lost sock serenade Warm and slow, I think I'll stay Nothing waiting, nowhere I should be Just the hum and me [Verse 2] Found a sock with a yellow stripe Not my size and not my type Someone's missing it tonight So I fold it up just right Leave it on the counter, write a note Found this, friend, in my old coat Funny how the smallest thing Makes the whole night softly sing [Chorus] Lost sock serenade Round and round the cycles play Little things that someone left behind Fold them up and treat them kind Lost sock serenade Warm and slow, I think I'll stay Nothing waiting, nowhere I should be Just the hum and me [Bridge] Spin, spin Let the quiet in Spin, spin Let the quiet in [Final Chorus] Lost sock serenade Round and round the cycles play Little things that someone left behind Fold them up and treat them kind Lost sock serenade Warm and slow, I think I'll stay Nothing waiting, nowhere I should be Just the hum and me [Outro] [End]
