another tranny shot up somewhere... go figure...
Playful theatrical musical, quirky cartoon rap, xylophone and toy piano, satirical yet earnest energy, child-like vocals, mid-tempo
00:00 / 00:00
Lyrics
[Intro – twinkling xylophone, bouncy toy piano plinks]
Headlines blare another name
Toy drums tap a hollow game
[Verse 1 – stuttering toy piano, soft shaker]
They paint us like a punchline joke
A scary story folks invoke
Box us up with sharpened words
Hide the truth behind absurd
[Pre-Chorus – rising xylophone arpeggios, toy cowbell]
We’re not the monsters in your head
Just kids who want a safe bed
Why’s the world so quick to fear
The ones who hold a different sphere
[Chorus – full toy instrument ensemble, playful yet tight rap flow]
When does it stop, when does it end
When do we get to just pretend
That we’re not targets, not a test
Just people who deserve some rest
When does it stop, when does it break
When do we get to make our stake
In a world that’s supposed to care
Instead of leaving us to stare
[Verse 2 – wobbly toy piano, clapping hands]
We laugh and cry like everyone
We chase the sun, we hum the fun
But every step feels like a trap
Like someone’s waiting to snap
[Pre-Chorus – layered xylophone, toy whistle accent]
We’re not the chaos in your street
Just souls who want a chance to meet
The world with open, honest eyes
Not hidden ‘neath your cruel disguise
[Chorus – toy instrument harmony, slightly louder earnest rap]
When does it stop, when does it end
When do we get to just pretend
That we’re not targets, not a test
Just people who deserve some rest
When does it stop, when does it break
When do we get to make our stake
In a world that’s supposed to care
Instead of leaving us to stare
[Bridge – soft xylophone, quiet toy piano, whispered rap]
We draw with crayons, sing off-key
We dream of days where we’re free
No more headlines, no more fear
Just us, just here, just near
[Solo – whimsical xylophone melody, toy piano counterpoint]
(Instrumental Solo)
[Final Chorus – full toy band, passionate child-like rap]
When does it stop, when does it end
When do we get to just pretend
That we’re not targets, not a test
Just people who deserve some rest
When does it stop, when does it break
When do we get to make our stake
In a world that’s supposed to care
Instead of leaving us to stare
[Outro – fading xylophone, single toy piano plink]
We’re still here, we’re still waiting
For the world to stop hating
