Color Me Up

by Faster Jackalope
*Lead Vocals- Truth
Music & Production- glennny
Lyrics by- Jay & glennny
Sampled Vocals: Jenny Lewis, Norah Jones, St. Vincent, Solange*

Verse1 with Jenny Lewis as Lady Luck (District Sleeps Alone)
Hello there Lady Luck
From which circle were you sent?

Lady Luck:
I am a visitor here
I am not permanent

I’m nearly killed, but most alive
I have the skill, believe my own lies

Pre-Chorus 1
Let me get away with this
Not all the luck but just a kiss

Chorus
Color me up dealer
I want it all in play
I’m chasing down a dragon
It might all go away

Verse 2 with Norah Jones as Miss Giving (Day Breaks)
Miss Giving, take your time!
Who’s the master that you serve?

*Miss Giving:
Time follows you around
Ticking slowly at your nerves
*
I think I’ve cracked the system
I can stay ahead of the curve

Pre-Chorus 2
You’re giving me such good cards now
I can’t afford to have a doubt

Chorus -
Color me up dealer
I want it all in play
I’m chasing down a dragon
It might all go away

Bridge with St. Vincent as Miss Anne Thrope (New York)
You should go back home to New York
I’m winning back all that I owe

*Miss Anne Thrope:
New York isn't New York without you, Love
*
Pre-Chorus 3
*Miss Anne Thorpe:
So far in a few blocks To be so low
*
Chorus -
Color me up dealer
I want it all in play
I’m chasing down a dragon
It might all go away

Coda with Solange as Miss Fortune (Cranes in the Sky)

Miss Fortune:
Away, away, away, away….

really ambitious writing and sampling. The execution doesn't quite come together for me, but I think that's mostly because I struggle with that U2-meets-Van-Halen guitar tone you've got going on, which distracts me from the good stuff. Sampling is clever, but some of them feel like they've really been forced into the song which lessens the appeal for me.
