Drop down low, pick the tempo up quicker (versión 2)

Intro

Sub-kick knocking on the sewer grate (grate)

Yellow bulb shaking, quarter past late (late)

Rib cage rattling, clock on two

Told that pavement what I came to do

Verse 1

Curbstone smoking from the rubber on the sole

Bass got a grip on the marrow in the bone

Halogen buzzing on the telephone wire

Ankles turned electric and the pavement is a choir

Shoulder roll left, dip hips to the seam

Street sign trembling under copper beam

Sweat on the collarbone, steam off the skin

Knuckles on the boombox, lock that in (in)

Toe tap, side snap, pivot on the grease

Every siren whistling a two-step piece

Red brake reflection on a silver front tooth

Arch in my spine got the whole block loose

Cadence on the curb, zero friction on the ground

Chest like an amp when the kick drops down

Shaking out the static from the ear to the shin

Don't ask questions where the drum begins (begins)

Chorus

Drop down low, pick the tempo up quicker

Heel on the curb, let the bass drum hit ya

All ten toes in the groove, don't quit ya

Bop till the block lights flicker (flicker)

Drop down low, pick the tempo up quicker

Heel on the curb, let the bass drum hit ya

All ten toes in the groove, don't quit ya

Bop till the block lights flicker (flicker)

Verse 2

Steam up from the manhole, ring on the stone

Shadow on the brick wall thicker than my own

Calf muscle twitching like a snare drum wire

Spit on the spark plug, roll through the fire

Hydrant dripping on a cracked white line

Ribs take the rhythm, tell the rest never mind

Kneecap clicking to the eighth-note clap

Catch that shudder when the wires snap back (back)

Alleyway tunnel turning copper into gold

Nothing in the blood going numb or cold

Stomp on the crosswalk, leave no slack

Front-step bounce with the rhythm in the back

Wrist twist tight when the treble cuts through

Asphalt hot like a skillet in a stew

Every single tendon in the arch wound tight

Body got a lock on the middle of the night (night)

Chorus

Drop down low, pick the tempo up quicker

Heel on the curb, let the bass drum hit ya

All ten toes in the groove, don't quit ya

Bop till the block lights flicker (flicker)

Drop down low, pick the tempo up quicker

Heel on the curb, let the bass drum hit ya

All ten toes in the groove, don't quit ya

Bop till the block lights flicker (flicker)

Bridge

Amp on the corner running off a car battery

Sparks in the cord, feed the hum to the artery

Feel that transformer hum in the throat

Every single joint hit a brand new note

Yellow turns blue when the voltage drops

Nobody looking for the rhythm to stop

Grid went dim, but the feet keep track

Take that shock and we send it right back (back)

Outro

Buzz in the wire (wire)

Heat in the shoe

Drop down low, pick the tempo up quicker

Bulb went pop on the corner view (pop)

Still right here when the night turns blue

Bop till the block lights flicker (flicker)
