Pop 101 Lyrics
[Verse 1: Marianas Trench]
Pop music 101
Some simple instructions
For a good first impression
Now let's start with a first one
A minor chord, tensions grow
Fade in the bass like so
Now, with momentum, go, stop
And bring the beat back
It’s called "four-on-the-floor"
A beat you can’t ignore
I’ll bring sexy back once more (yeah)
They’ll love that (yeah) fo' sho!
The chords are 1-4-6-4
Now I’m talkin' familiar
Harmony in thirds, not fourths
Will take you into the pre-chorus
[Pre-Chorus: Marianas Trench]
Real quick now, don’t you bore us
Hurry up and get to the chorus
Dumb down, they won’t ignore us
[Chorus: Marianas Trench]
Get to the floor
And here’s some words you should know
Like, “DJ, never let me go”
"Pour shots and then I'll lose control"
Or, “Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby”
How about one more last word like
"Hey, girl, we’ve only got tonight"
Some things just go together like
"Higher," "desire," and "fire"
"Higher," "desire," and "fire"
[Verse 2: Marianas Trench]
Guitar and strings like these
To sound like Black Eyed Peas
This one's a filtered swing
This one’s Imogen Heap
Hipster music on cassette
But you probably don’t know that yet
808s, hey, ho, hell yeah!
Heartfelt pop anthems

From Mumford and his Sons
Gang vocals, here we come
Thinking, “I will always wait”
Wobble bass
[Pre-Chorus: Marianas Trench]
Real quick now, don’t you bore us
Hurry up and get to the chorus
Dumb down, they won’t ignore us
K, slow down
Take it to the chorus
[Chorus: Marianas Trench]
Get to the floor
And here’s some words you should know
Like, “DJ, never let me go”
"Pour shots and then I'll lose control"
Or, “Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby”
How about one more last word like
"Hey, girl, we’ve only got tonight"
Some things just go together like
"Higher," "desire," and "fire"
"Higher," "desire," and "fire
[Bridge: Anami Vice]
I can pitch shift my voice if I want
I can pitch shift my voice if I want
I can pitch shift my voice if I want
I can make my voice low
[Marianas Trench (Anami Vice)]
The bridge is
The part when
You bring in
A rapper friend ('sup?)
You simplify and slow the beat
Abbreviate "feature" to "feat."
[Anami Vice (Marianas Trench)]
Quick now, fill in the gaps (okay!)
Right up and down
Eliminate that which you really would rap and
Give them a classic, like, "Cash money!"
[Chorus: Marianas Trench]
Get to the floor
And here’s some words you should know
Like, “DJ, never let me go”
"Pour shots and then I'll lose control"
Or, “Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby”
How about one more last word like
"Hey girl, we’ve only got tonight"
Some things just go together like
"Higher," "desire," and "fire"
"Higher," "desire," and "fire
[Outro: Anami Vice]
Oh, yeah, dance
[Marianas Trench]
Boots and cats and boots and cats and boots and cats and boots
