Men in Black Polo Shirts

High-energy indie rock with extended instrumental sections and hypnotic outros, Catchy verses and choruses dissolve into long, evolving instrumental passages driven by electric guitar loops, melodic bass, expressive cello, and unstable analog synths, Dark humor gives way to unease and obsession, Songs feel unresolved, as if still happening after the recording ends, Purpose: Paranoia through banality Write a tight, rhythmic song about authority figures who are polite, vague, and deeply unsettling, Lyrics should contradict themselves, repeat phrases, and offer reassurance that nothing unusual happened, Use call-and-response or layered vocals to suggest identical voices slightly out of sync

Verse 1 Nice to meet you, we’ve met before Same smile standing at your door Nothing strange has ever been Please repeat that back again Chorus Men in black polo shirts Tucking in all the hurt Sign right here, look at the light You slept great last night Verse 2 Different face, identical tone Reading thoughts off company phones If you disagree, that’s fine You’ll forget in just a line Verse 3 Parking lot, middle of town No reflections when they turn around Clipboard names you never said Crossing wires in your head Chorus 2 Men in black polo shirts Pressing down what still hurts Smile clean, keep it polite Everything’s alright ⸻ Verse 4 Coffee’s cold but the cup is warm Standard issue, standard form Every answer leads the same No one here is to blame Chorus 3 Men in black polo shirts Buttoned up beneath the dirt Say you’re fine, say you’re sure Memory’s secure ⸻ Instrumental Breakdown (Outro) (No vocals — pulsing bass, detuned synths, distant radio static)
