Overboard

[Silence]
[Instrumental, Electric Guitar, Acoustic Guitar, Bass, Drums, Piano, Organ, Synth]

[Intro]
[Instrumental Intro: Rolling Bass, Playful Electric Guitar, Tight Drums, Quirky Synth Stabs]
[Spoken Vocal]
Oops…

A little too far?
(Into bizarre)
A little too fast?
(Into the past)
A little too much?
(… and such)

[Refrain]
Oops
(Went a little overboard)
Oops is the word?
(Can you go a little…)
Without going a lot
(Why… why not?)

[Verse 1]
Started with a little more
Then I opened up the door
One more step and one more try
Then the next thing caught my eye

[Chorus]
Oops!
(Went a little overboard)
Oops!
(That’s the word)

Can you go a little
(Without going a lot?)
Rush the edge
(And not get caught?)

Why?
(Why not?)
Why?
(Why not?)

[Verse 2]
There’s a line between enough
And a little bit too much
There’s a point where more is more
Till you’re standing past the shore

[Instrumental]
[Electric Guitar Solo: Playful Surf-Rock Lead, Bouncy Bass, Tight Drums, Organ Chops, Synth Accents]
[Bridge]
Over!
(Over!)

Board!
(Board!)

Past the line
(Past our prime)

[Breakdown]
[Drums Drop Out: Acoustic Guitar, Bass Groove, Soft Synth]
Oops…

Did it again.

One more little step…

One more little push…

And suddenly—

Overboard!
(Oh my lord!)

[Final Refrain]
Oops
(Went a little overboard)
Oops is the word?
(Can you go a little…)
Without going a lot
(Why… why not?)

[Final Chorus]
Oops!
(Went a little overboard)
That’s the word
(You knew you would)

Can you go a little
(Without going a lot?)
Test the edge
(See what you’ve got)

[Refrain]
Oops
(Went a little overboard)
Oops is the word?
(Can you go a little…)
Without going a lot
(Why… why not?)

Why?
(Why not?)
Why?
(Why not?)

[Outro]
[Instrumental Outro: Surf Guitar, Bouncy Bass, Handclaps, Drums, Quirky Synth Fade]
Oops…

A little over…

A little board…

Overboard.

[Spoken]

Oops.
