Verse
Strobe cut the room into a dozen frames
Freeze on the skank then it moves again
Flash catch a hand mid reach for the rail
Blink and we're stuck like a stuttering tale
Light chop the smoke into slices thin
Snare hit the gap where the dark steps in
Freeze frame face with the eyes half shut
Sub drop soft where the shutter cuts
Pre-Chorus
Why's the room only move when it's black
Why's my body a beat off the track
Who's holding the flash on the one and the three
Why's it feel like the room's skanking with me
Chorus
Shutter speed skank, shutter speed skank
Catch us mid step then the dark goes blank
Shutter speed skank, shutter speed skank
Frame by frame till the whole floor cranks
Verse
Flash on a shoulder then flash on a knee
Flipbook bodies moving jerky and free
White light bite through the bassline haze
Same four click like a camera's craze
Heel drop caught in a silver spark
Toe lift vanished back into dark
Every strobe steal a half a beat
Stitch it back with the kick and the heat
Pre-Chorus
Why's the room only move when it's black
Why's my body a beat off the track
Who's holding the flash on the one and the three
Why's it feel like the room's skanking with me
Chorus
Shutter speed skank, shutter speed skank
Catch us mid step then the dark goes blank
Shutter speed skank, shutter speed skank
Frame by frame till the whole floor cranks
Bridge
No flash now just the sub and the sway
Bodies keep skanking the flicker away
Light comes back and we're still in time
Proof that the dark never broke the line
Chorus
Shutter speed skank, shutter speed skank
Catch us mid step then the dark goes blank
Shutter speed skank, shutter speed skank
Frame by frame till the whole floor cranks
