V5.5

[INTRO —  hypnotic, horrorcore]
[sung, spooky and harmonic intro]
Simon Says— 
Step INside— (Whispers and Echoes) 
lock the doOOR—
of  YOUR mind. (Whispers and Echoes)

How to Build a Trap  House  (trap-trap) Simon says, [Whispers and Echoes] simon says

[Verse 1 — half‑spoken, half‑sung]
Step one:

Be loud, rowdy, tawdry.
Hang your dirty laundry
on a line outside
Where passersby
can see your stâins.

Curiosity killed the cat.
Forget about that.
Feed the strays.

[Pre‑Chorus — soft, sly rap]
Welcome strâangers — set a table
show ’em who you’re tîed to,
They learn your favorite colors — réd and blúe
Who you lóve — who lóves you
Whatchu hôld‑in’ — what you hold trúe
Whatchu tráde, what you váḷue
What gives you prîde, what you parade.

Let ’em Ride SHOTgun
on an enemy ráid.

[Chorus — smooth, melodic]
Your foundation has been laid~
— Step two
Adopt a gôd
who don’ LOOK like yóu-oo-oOo-OOhA—
That’s what i’s áll about.
Givin ya self doubt
That’s how you bûild a (pause)
trap… house.

[Break — jazzy ad‑lib]

This is how you
build a trap house
like a little mouse
inside a maze

Sup, blaze up
Check out what he is pouring
in his jewel‑encrusted golden cup.

Keep the cup.

Let ’em Ride SHOTgun
on an enemy ráid.

[Bridge]
Let them ask you questions about yourself,
and publish books that say something else.
Compulsory, mandatory, you send your children to their schools,
where those lies become the rules
of your child's education.
A generation later
settlers are building foundations
on things they found here.
And your legacy begins on a slave ship
Hey, they drew a picture
to lock inside your memory and save it
Now you can sus‑pénd your dis‑be‑líef
What a relief!

Let ’em Ride SHOTgun
on an enemy ráid.

[OUTRO — Big smoky finish]
There's not
too much
you have to do
to build a trap, a trap, trap house—Step 3

Step inside
and lock the door
of your mind.

[OUTRO — room‑shrinks effect, strong smoky finale]
[Instrumental drops to a single heartbeat kick — slow, pulsing, in the dark]

Simon says—
Step inside—
lock the door—
of your mind.
