Savage!
post-punk revival, dance-punk, 168 BPM, driving bass ostinato, jagged clean guitars, overdriven guitar stabs, glass harmonica accents, snappy drum fills, tom-heavy breakdown, tight dry drums, punchy parallel compression, narrow verse mix, explosive chorus lift, syncopated vocal phrasing, male snark vocals, aggressive delivery, bitter catharsis, kinetic menace

Lyrics
Verse 1
Pouring your sugar in my coffee cup
You’re looking lovely, baby, fill me up
You’ve got a smile that could freeze the sun
I've seen you scheming on the damage to be done
Whispering your secrets in the hallway light
Saving up your poison for the middle of the night
..alright...
Pre-Chorus
You think I don’t know
Yeah, you think I don’t see
How you bare your teeth
When you’re talking 'bout me
Chorus
Oh, you’re just another savage, savage, savage
Fake that civility as long as you can manage
Live that double life, yeah, feel that double-edged sword
Gonna cut you loose, babe, I’m getting bored
Of you, savage, savage, savage
You’re ain't nothing but a wolf waitin' to ravage!
You're a goddamn savage!
(Oh!)
Verse 2
Nod and grin like a puppet doll
But I see the writin' on the wall
You’ll play the martyr when the cameras flash
Hidin' the monster in the broken glass
Got ahead and spin a fable to the crowd
I'll say the quiet part out loud
Pre-Chorus
You think I don’t know
Yeah, you think I don’t see
How you bare your teeth
When you’re talking 'bout me
Chorus
Oh, you’re just another savage, savage, savage
Fake that civility as long as you can manage
Live that double life, yeah, feel that double-edged sword
Gonna cut you loose, babe, I’m getting bored
Of you, savage, savage, savage
You’re ain't nothing but a wolf waitin' to ravage!
You're a goddamn savage!
(Oh!)
Bridge
It’s a costume, it’s a fake, it’s a beautiful mistake
I know I'll laugh while I watch you watch me break
Its not breaking, no, it's waking up
I’m tired of sugar in a poisoned cup!
Guitar Solo / Instrumental Break
Chorus
Oh, you’re just another savage, savage, savage
Fake that civility as long as you can manage
Live that double life, yeah, feel that double-edged sword
Gonna cut you loose, babe, I’m getting bored
Of you, savage, savage, savage
You’re ain't nothing but a wolf waitin' to ravage!
You're a goddamn savage!
(Oh!)
Outro
Yeah, a damn savage
Not so sweet, oh so tragic
Savage!
(Savage!)
Savage!
Savage!
(Savage!)
Savage Savage Savage!
