Skank Low, Talk Slow (Version 2)

Intro

Shuffle in the hi-hat

Lean where the snare at

Verse

Two-step tugging on my ankle bone

Kick drop late, letting bodies roam

Garage swing got a lazy pull

Half-time heart in a room this full

Chorus

Skank low, talk slow

Let the offbeat run the show

Skank low, talk slow

Hips know before you know

Verse

Bassline bending like it's short on time

Hi-hat ticking off a lazy rhyme

Shoulder dips when the snare go soft

Whole floor swaying, nobody's lost

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel the groove behind the beat

Pulling slack into your feet

Nothing rushing, nothing tight

Just the swing running the night

Chorus

Skank low, talk slow

Let the offbeat run the show

Skank low, talk slow

Hips know before you know

Bridge

It ain't the speed, it's the space between

Gap in the rhythm where the body leans

Word in your ear, half a beat late

That's the pocket, that's the shape

Chorus

Skank low, talk slow

Let the offbeat run the show

Skank low, talk slow

Hips know before you know

Outro

Skank low

Talk slow

Still in the pocket

Letting it go
