Vocal Chop Alibi

Verse

Strobe cuts white through the smoke machine

Chopped up vocal, don't know what it means

Red cup sweatin' in your left hand

Eyes locked once and the whole room scanned

Snare goes skip where the kick drops low

Sample stutters like you don't wanna go

Pre-Chorus

Floor gets tighter, hands find hands

Nobody's watching, but everyone can

Bassline speaks it, I don't gotta try

That's my excuse and I'm asking why

Chorus

You're my vocal chop alibi

Cut up syllables, catch my eye

Every stutter got me crossing the floor

Say it once and I'm back for more

You're my vocal chop alibi

Sliced up reason to stand this close

Bass keep dropping, don't need a line

You're my vocal chop alibi

Verse

Chrome light bouncing off your collarbone

Speaker rattling the mic you own

Half a phrase loop, twice a beat

Body language doing all the speaking

Sweat on the handrail, cold champagne

Same four words on a hi-hat chain

Pre-Chorus

Floor gets tighter, hands find hands

Nobody's watching, but everyone can

Bassline speaks it, I don't gotta try

That's my excuse and I'm asking why

Chorus

You're my vocal chop alibi

Cut up syllables, catch my eye

Every stutter got me crossing the floor

Say it once and I'm back for more

You're my vocal chop alibi

Sliced up reason to stand this close

Bass keep dropping, don't need a line

You're my vocal chop alibi

Bridge

Drop the noise down, just the pulse and skin

Nobody's talking, we just let it spin

Forget the hook line, forget the beat

It's just your breathing syncing up with me

Chorus

You're my vocal chop alibi

Cut up syllables, catch my eye

Every stutter got me crossing the floor

Say it once and I'm back for more

You're my vocal chop alibi

Sliced up reason to stand this close

Bass keep dropping, don't need a line

You're my vocal chop alibi
