Dust on the Needle

Lyrics

Intro
Skrt-skrt
Cut it up
Cut it up
Word on wax
Bring it back
Bring it back (hey!)

Verse 1
Thumb on the label
Eye on the crowd
Quiet in my chest
Then I tear it all loud

Little pop in the groove
Little ghost in the crack
Every scar on the record
Is a map right back

Chorus
Dust on the needle
My voice on the track
DJ talk to me
Then you drag it right back

Slice my name in the night
Let the silence react
Every word that I say
You can bend it
Scratch

Verse 2
Spit one line
You flip that twice
Make broke phrases
Feel rich
Feel nice

I breathe
You bleed
That sound in the gap
You carve my vowels
Like a knife on wax

Chorus
Dust on the needle
My voice on the track
DJ talk to me
Then you drag it right back

Slice my name in the night
Let the silence react
Every word that I say
You can bend it
Scratch

Bridge
Chop my “yeah” into sparks (yeah)
Stutter my “go” into marks (go)
Turn my “stop” into stars
Then slam it back to the start

Chorus
Dust on the needle
My voice on the track
DJ talk to me
Then you drag it right back

Slice my name in the night
Let the silence react
Every word that I say
You can bend it
Scratch
