YOU LOOK BETTER IN MY T-SHIRT Radio Edit — Target 3:05–3:15 Contemporary R&B × Pop × Funk-Soul | ~95 BPM | Male Tenor [INTRO — 0:00–0:10] [signature warm rubbery bass riff] [clipped electric guitar joins; tight kick] [soft stacked whisper] Better… better… [lead, close-mic, smiling] You look better in my T-shirt. [VERSE 1 — 0:10–0:37] Last night, black dress, downtown lights Whole room turned when you walked by Red lips, high heels, everybody staring I played it cool, but barely Now sunlight’s falling through the blinds You’re stealing my coffee like it’s already mine Hair down, dancing in the kitchen And I swear I’ve never seen you— [half-beat pause] Look this good. [PRE-CHORUS — 0:37–0:48] Keep the diamonds Keep the downtown lights ‘Cause the way you’re looking right now— [falsetto] I can’t lie… [CHORUS — 0:48–1:12] You look better in my T-shirt [background: Better, better, baby] Hair down, dancing in the kitchen Like nobody’s watching lately You look better in my T-shirt [background: Better, better, it’s true] Baby, everything I own Looks a little better on you [POST-CHORUS — 1:12–1:24] [beat gets funkier; bass forward] [lead] Better, better— [gang response] BETTER! You make it look better than I do Better, better— [gang] BETTER! [falsetto] Especially you… [VERSE 2 — 1:24–1:48] You’re singing every word wrong to our song Wooden spoon microphone, carrying on Looking for your phone— [spoken] “Baby, where’d it go?” [small laugh] It’s in your hand. You roll your eyes, throw that smile And suddenly I don’t miss last night Everybody got the dressed-up version— [soft] I think I like this one. [PRE-CHORUS — 1:48–1:58] Forget the diamonds Forget the downtown lights ‘Cause the way you’re looking right now— [falsetto] I can’t lie… [CHORUS — 1:58–2:22] You look better in my T-shirt [background: Better, better, baby] Hair down, dancing in the kitchen Like nobody’s watching lately You look better in my T-shirt [background: Better, better, it’s true] Baby, everything I own Looks a little better on you [BRIDGE — 2:22–2:43] [DRUMS DROP OUT] [bass heartbeat + clean guitar; vocal becomes vulnerable] Everybody knows the girl Who walks into the room But they don’t know the girl Who sings into a wooden spoon Maybe it’s not what you’re wearing Maybe I’m finally seeing you [brief silence] I thought it was the T-shirt… [soft falsetto] Baby, maybe it’s just you. [FINAL CHORUS — 2:43–3:06] [FULL BAND CRASHES BACK] You look better in my T-shirt! [gang] BETTER! BETTER, BABY! Hair down, dancing in the kitchen Like nobody’s watching lately You look better in my T-shirt! [gang] BETTER! BETTER, IT’S TRUE! Baby, everything I own Looks a little better on you [FINAL POST / OUTRO — 3:06–3:15] [lead] Better, better— [gang] BETTER! You make it look better than I do [band drops] [lead, intimate] But maybe it’s just you. [whispered layers] Better… better… [signature bass riff ends alone]
