[Verse 1: Josh Ramsay]
Pop music 101
Some simple instructions
For a good first impression
Now let's start with verse one
A minor chord, tensions grow
Fade in the bass like so
Now, with momentum, go, stop
And bring the beat back
It's called "four-on-the-floor"
A beat you can't ignore
I'll bring sexy back once more (Yeah)
They love that (Yeah) fo' sho!
The chords are 1-4-6-4
Now I'm talkin' familiar
Harmony in thirds, not fourths
Will take you into the pre-chorus
[Pre-Chorus: Josh Ramsay]
Real quick now, don't you bore us
Hurry up and get to the chorus
Dumbed down, they won't ignore us
[Chorus: Josh Ramsay]
Get to the floor
And hear some words you should know
Like, "DJ, never let me go"
Or, "Shots and then we'll lose control"
Or, "Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby"
How about one more last word like
"Hey, girl, we've only got tonight"
Some things just go together like
"Higher," "desire," and "fire"
"Higher," "desire," and "fire"
[Verse 2: Josh Ramsay]
Guitar and strings like these
To sound like Black Eyed Peas
This one's a filter sweep
This one's Imogen Heap
Hipster music on cassette
But you probably don't know them yet
808s, hey, ho, hell yeah!
Heartfelt pub anthems
From Mumford and his Sons
Gang vocals, here we come
Been thinking, "I will always wait"
Wobble bass
[Pre-Chorus: Josh Ramsay]
Real quick now, don't you bore us
Hurry up and get to the chorus
Dumbed down, they won't ignore us
Tape slow down
Take 'em to the chorus
[Chorus: Josh Ramsay]
Whoa!
And hear some words you should know
Like, "DJ, never let me go"
Or, "Shots and then we'll lose control"
Or, "Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby"
How about one more last word like
"Hey, girl, we've only got tonight"
Some things just go together like
"Higher," "desire," and "fire"
"Higher," "desire," and "fire"
[Bridge 1: Anami Vice]
I can pitch shift my voice if I want
I can pitch shift my voice if I want
I can pitch shift my voice if I want
I can make my voice low
[Bridge 2: Josh Ramsay, Anami Vice]
The bridge is the part when
You bring in a rapper friend ('Sup?)
You simplify and slow the beat
Abbreviate "feature" to "feat."
Quick now, fill in the gap (Okay!)
Water it down, eliminate that which you really would rap
And give 'em a classic, like-
[Chorus: Josh Ramsay & Anami Vice]
Get-Get-Get-Get to the floor (Cash money!)
And hear some words you should know (Yeah)
Like, "DJ, never let me go"
Or "Shots and then we'll lose control"
(Ad-lib)
Or, "Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby" (Baby)
How about one more last word like
"Hey girl, we've only got tonight"
Some things just go together like
"Higher," "desire," and "fire"
"Higher," "desire," and "fire"
[Outro: Anami Vice, Josh Ramsay]
Oh, yeah
Dance
Boots and cats and boots and cats and boots and cats and boots
(Joshua Ramsay)
Boots and cats and boots and cats and boots
