intro - staccato rhythmic chant, deadpan British bite, dry minimal handclaps, scratchy guitar flickers, building riot tension
My shoes. My coat. My mouth. My throat.
My eyes. My teeth. My name.
You've got none of it right.
verse 1 - snotty talk-sing rhythmic deadpan, dry delivery, four-on-the-floor undertow, sparse scratchy stabs, Le Tigre-style punchy attitude
You called me by the girl before me
Left her perfume soaked into my name
I spit it on the carpet
Still smells the same
You wrote me on a sticky note
Stuck it under somebody else's face
I peeled it off and ate it
Left no trace
pre-chorus - feisty rising pitch snarl, gang vocal layers creeping, synth-punk tension swell, handclaps cracking like whips
Say it slower — say it louder
Does it even fit inside your mouth?
Say it slower — say it louder
Spit it out
chorus - gang vocal riot explosion, double-tracked snotty layered shouts, Yeah Yeah Yeahs ferocity blast, full four-on-the-floor + fuzzed bass, maximal anthemic chaos
Chew my name wrong
Bite down on somebody else
Chew my name wrong
Taste the teeth of someone else
I'm not her — I'm not her
I never said that I was her
Chew my name wrong
Spit it out
verse 2 - punchy dry talk-sing, rhythmic percussive guitar stabs, riot grrrl edge bite, electropunk synth undertones growl
You looked straight through me at the wall behind me
Said you'd seen that coat before on someone good
I took it off and burned it
Misunderstood
You wrote my number down in someone else's handwriting
Filed me under a name that wasn't mine
I crossed it out in marker
Thick black line
pre-chorus - feisty intensifying, gang layers stacking, DFA raw build, handclaps + jagged synth crashes
Say it slower — say it louder
Does it even fit inside your mouth?
Say it slower — say it louder
Spit it out
chorus - layered gang shouts snarl, full chaotic post-punk energy, synth-punk crash, indie-sleaze peak with ferocious attitude
Chew my name wrong
Bite down on somebody else
Chew my name wrong
Taste the teeth of someone else
I'm not her — I'm not her
I never said that I was her
Chew my name wrong
Spit it out
bridge - stripped vulnerable-to-sharp pivot, thin jagged synth line, deadpan spoken riot grrrl intimacy then bite, minimal beat drop for tension
You said "you look familiar"
I said — no I don't
You said "I know your face"
I said — no you won't
You said "what's your name again?"
I said — you don't deserve it
break - handclap crowd stomp build, gang punctuation shouts "Hey!" "Wrong!" "No!", electropunk swell, scratchy noise rising ferociously
Hey! Wrong! No!
outro - maximalist chant chaos explosion, overlapping gang vocal layers, four-on-the-floor full throttle, clashing fuzzed guitars + synths, DFA noisy decay, defiant repetition rampage
Chew it — spit it — wrong wrong wrong
Chew it — spit it — not my name
Wrong wrong wrong wrong
Not my name — not my face — not my coat
Wrong wrong wrong
Spit it out
Wrong wrong wrong...
Spit it out
End
