Lyrics

Instrumental Intro

Trumpet Melody

Tenor Sax

Rhythm Section

Drop

Ba-da ba-da ba-da ba-da ba

Ba-da ba-da ba-da ba-da ba

Verse 1

Walking down the avenue at half past five

Silver case in hand and nothing left to prove

Trolley groans around the bend and comes alive

Conductor tips his hat beneath the orange roof

Pre-Chorus

And the horns call out

And the horns call out

Chorus

Brass and strings collide downtown

Double bass walks underground

Every brick a different key

Ska and swing in minor thirds

Drop

Ba-da ba-da ba-da ba-da ba

Ba-da ba-da ba-da ba-da ba

Instrumental Breakdown

Solo violin over walking bass

(Full brass swell)

Verse 2

Stairwell echoes through the opera house at dawn

Cellist left her bow upon the velvet chair

Percussion rattles from a room across the lawn

Three trumpets warming up the morning air

Pre-Chorus

And the horns call out

And the horns call out

Chorus

Brass and strings collide downtown

Double bass walks underground

Every brick a different key

Ska and swing in minor thirds

Bridge

(French horn countermelody)

(Pizzicato strings march forward)

Final Drop

Ba-da ba-da ba-da ba-da ba

Ba-da ba-da ba-da ba-da ba

Ba-da ba-da ba-da ba

Outro - Trumpet fade
