Jump!

Lyrics

INTRO
(The beat starts: Devon providing a deep, resonant kick drum sound "Doom, phat, doom-doom, phat." Aiden adds a bright, rhythmic "Tch-ka-tch-ka" hi-hat.)
​ALL:
K! B! X!
Kicking out the basic, bringing the best!
K! B! X!
Put your stamina to the test!
​[VERSE 1: INTRODUCTIONS]
​AIDEN (Tenor): I’m Aiden, the range, I hit the high ceiling,
When I grab the mic, you know the vibe is healing!
(Becky: Healing? Sounds more like a squeaky wheeling!)
Hey! Just ‘cause I got style and my notes are pure,
I’m the tenor spark that’s the dance floor cure!
​DEVON (Bass):
(Drops his voice an octave lower)
I’m Devon, the floor, the foundation, the bass,
Moving so low I can feel it in my face.
(Fiona: He’s just grumpy ‘cause he’s got no knees.)
Watch it, Fiona! I move with ease!
I’m the heartbeat, the thumping in your chest!
​BECKY (Mezzo-Soprano):
I’m Becky, the middle, the glue in the blend,
The energy source on which they all depend.
(Aiden: She’s also the one who won’t stop talking!)
At least when I move, it’s dancing, not walking!
I’m the fire in the wire, let’s go!
​FIONA (Contralto):
I’m Fiona, the soul, the smoky contralto,
I keep these three from hitting an accidental alto.
(Devon: She’s the boss, and we’re all afraid.)
You’re right, big guy—now let’s see the moves you’ve made!
​[CHORUS]
ALL:
Jump! Jump! Like a crazy fool,
KBX is breaking every single rule!
Left foot, right foot, leave it on the floor,
Kicking out the basic, then we’re asking for more!
(Aiden: High harmony) Aaaa-asking for more!
​[VERSE 2: THE BANTER]
​AIDEN: Look at Becky, she’s jumping like a spring!
BECKY: Better than Aiden, who’s tangled in his swing!
FIONA: (Laughs) You both look like toddlers in a bouncy house.
DEVON: While Fiona’s over there, quiet as a mouse—until the beat drops!
FIONA: Oh, don't you worry about my rhythm, Bass-man. I’ve got more soul in my pinky than your whole plan!
BECKY: Admit it, Devon’s got the moves... for a guy who’s 90% torso.
DEVON: Hey! Flattery will get you everywhere, Mezzo!
​[BRIDGE: THE RAP - BECKY]
(Devon switches to a fast, double-time beatbox)
​BECKY:
Yo, step back, clear the lane, KBX is the name,
We don’t do it for the money, don’t do it for the fame.
We’re kicking out the "basic," that’s the "X" in the title,
Survival on the dance floor is becoming quite vital!
I’m a Mezzo with a message, spinning circles like a cyclone,
Aiden’s got the pitch but I’m the queen upon the throne!
Fiona brings the velvet, Devon brings the thunder,
If you try to match our energy, you’re gonna go under!
Jump, leap, fly, reach for the sky,
We’re the four-piece puzzle that you can’t deny!
​[SOLO: DRUM & BASS - DEVON]
(The others drop out except for a faint, rhythmic humming)
​DEVON:
(Vocal percussion solo: Deep sub-bass "Wub-wubs" mixed with rapid-fire snare "Pah-tah-tah" and a heavy, distorted bassline sound produced in the throat)
B-m-p-t-shh-wub-wub-wub-B-m-p-t-shh
Vocal scratch: Errr-it-errr-it!
(He mimics a heavy synth bass drop)
BWAAAAAA-da-da-da-BWAAAAA!
​[OUTRO]
​ALL:
(Jumping together, voices building in volume)
K! B! X!
We’re out of breath!
K! B! X!
Danced to death!
​AIDEN: (Floating high) Still got the high note...
FIONA: (Low and smooth) Go to sleep, Aiden.
DEVON: (Heavy breath) One more... jump?
BECKY: (Laughs) KBX out!
​(Final sound: A synchronized "STOMP" and a collective "HUH!")
