Shutter speed skank, shutter speed skank

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
