Lyrics
Intro
(scratch & vinyl crackle)
Hey! Swing it! Break it! Light it up!
Verse 1
Neon lights on wet concrete, 1920 in the future street
Stiletto heels click to the beat, brass is talking dirty
Cigarette smoke in the shape of a bassline
Walking that low, low, walking that low, low
Paparazzi flashing, but we move like ghosts
Champagne dripping on my wrist, doing the most
Pre-Chorus
Tension rising, heart colliding
Synths are pumping, the whole room is vibrating
Feel that four on the floor, cracking open the door
To a world where the past and the future make war
Chorus / Drop
Blow that brass! (Brass!) Hit me harder!
Swing it fast! (Swing!) Light the fire!
We don’t stop, we don’t quit, we own the night
Electro kings in the limelight!
Brass! Brass! Syncopated attack!
Drop it low, then we bring it right back!
Pump that kick, let the sidechain breathe
This is electro-swing royalty!
Verse 2
Piano stabs like a tommy gun
Rat-ta-tat-tat, everybody’s on the run
Flappers flipping in the laser glow
Gangster bots doing the Lindy Hop below
Vinyl in my veins, digital flame
We rewrite the rules of the game
Bridge / Build
(Filtered vocal chops)
Higher... higher... feel it climbing
The pressure’s rising, no denying
Scratch it, chop it, break it down
Then we blow the whole damn place out!
Final Chorus / Big Drop
Blow that brass! (Brass!) Louder, meaner!
Swing it fast! (Swing!) We are the fever!
Hands up high till the morning light
We own this electro-swing tonight!
Brass! Brass! Tear the roof off the place!
Minor key but we still own the bass!
One more time, let the horns scream
This is the sound of a beautiful dream!
Outro
(Brass riff + heavy scratches)
Swing... swing... never gonna stop...
Electro-swing 'til the world drops...
