V6

[Intro] [Start with bass and drums. Guitar enters as short fuzzy stabs with ringing feedback between phrases.] [Verse 1] [Keep the vocal dry, conversational, and slightly sneering. Drums stay tight and restless; bass moves independently under the vocal.] You show up late You drink for free You know the guy Who knows the key You break a glass You blame the floor They laugh And bring you one more [Chorus] [Open the guitars into a wider wall of fuzz. Push the vocal harder without turning it into a scream. Let the drums become more physical and loose.] Everybody likes you That's the worst part Everybody likes you You make it look hard Everybody likes you I don't know why You ruin the night And leave with a ride [Verse 2] [Pull the guitars back again. Keep the bass prominent and slightly melodic. Vocal returns to a detached, amused delivery.] You lose your coat You find a friend You start a fight You didn't intend You kiss somebody Forget their name They call you charming You call it Tuesday [Chorus] [Return at full density. Let feedback and upper guitar harmonics hang between vocal lines.] Everybody likes you That's the worst part Everybody likes you You make it look hard Everybody likes you I don't know why You ruin the night And leave with a ride [Instrumental] [Let bass and drums carry the groove while the guitars become unstable, noisy, and dissonant.] [Bridge] [Strip the arrangement down. Vocal becomes flatter and more direct.] You never pay You never call You never catch The blame at all [Breakdown] [Heavy stop-start rhythm. Leave brief gaps around the vocal.] Everybody likes you Everybody likes you Everybody— Yeah [Chorus] [Hit the final chorus with the biggest guitar density of the song. Drums push forward with fills while the bass keeps moving underneath.] Everybody likes you That's the worst part Everybody likes you You make it look hard Everybody likes you I don't know why You ruin the night And leave with a ride [Outro] [Drop suddenly to bass, drums, and one damaged guitar line.] You show up late They let you in
