Turtleneck
Contemporary R&B and soul parody. Features a prominent electric bass playing syncopated, melodic lines with a warm, rounded tone. A clean electric guitar provides rhythmic stabs and occasional bluesy fills. The drum kit uses a tight, dry snare and a soft kick, maintaining a steady mid-tempo groove. A soulful male lead vocal performs with extensive melisma, dynamic shifts from chest voice to a breathy falsetto, and layered gospel-style backing harmonies. The arrangement includes subtle electric piano chords and occasional orchestral string swells for dramatic emphasis. Key of E major. Tempo is 88 BPM.

Lyrics
[electric bass enters with melodic fill]
[clean electric guitar stabs]
(Ooh, ooh)
[Verse 1]
[soulful male vocals, chest voice]
I'ma lay you down, baby
Take your clothes off
I'll make love to you
In all the ways you want
But one thing I won't do [bass slide]
Is take off my turtleneck
My turtleneck [falsetto]
My turtleneck
My turtleneck [vocal runs]
My turtleneck
[Chorus]
[layered backing harmonies enter]
Please stop asking me to take off my turtleneck
Baby, I'm butt-naked from the waist down
Baby, loving you is my favorite habit
Kiss my neck through this fabric
'Cause all I want to do is make love to you
In my turtleneck
In this motherfucking cashmere turtleneck
[vocal ad-libs] (Mmm, the way this turtle)
Gripping my neck, squeezing me, choking me
I'm dripping turtleneck sweat, it's hot
But I'm not taking this T-N-R off
I won't stop until you get off
[Outro]
[dramatic string swells]
I'ma lay you down, baby (Baby)
Take your clothes off
I'll make love to you
In all the ways you want
But one thing I won't do
Is take off my turtleneck
My turtleneck
My turtleneck
My turtleneck
[music swells then fades]
Stop asking, stop asking
Stop asking me to take off my turtleneck
Stop asking, I won't do it, I won't do it
Stop asking me to take off my turtleneck
I won't do it, I won't do it
My turtleneck
My turtleneck
