[Intro – Playful Whistle, Light Percussion]
Pucker up, don’t take it serious
Little noise, a little delirious
Not a word but loud and clear
Say it all without a fear
[Verse 1]
You can dress it up in a clever line
You can spin it out, take your time
But sometimes words just get in the way
Better off with what you don’t say
Roll your eyes, take your stance
Give the moment half a chance
When the world gets way too tight
You can answer back just right
[Pre-Chorus]
No debate, no apologies
Just a sound that breaks the freeze
[Chorus]
Raspberries
(A Bronx cheer)
Blowing a raspberry
(Intent is clear)
Raspberries
(Loud and near)
Blowing a raspberry
(…very…)
[Verse 2 – Bouncy Bassline Enters]
Every rule you’re told to keep
Every promise buried deep
Sometimes all it really takes
Is a noise that gently shakes
Not polite, not refined
But it speaks what’s on your mind
When the pressure starts to build
Let it out, unfiltered
[Pre-Chorus]
No permission, no decree
Just a little mockery
[Chorus]
Raspberries
(A Bronx cheer)
Blowing a raspberry
(Intent is clear)
Raspberries
(Far and near)
Blowing a raspberry
(…very…)
[Bridge – Breakdown, Claps + Minimal Beat]
Stick out your tongue some
(Outcome varies)
Let it roll, let it come
(No need for worries)
Make a sound, say it all
(Big or small)
Sometimes simple says it best
(No need for the rest)
[Build – Full Band Returns, Energetic]
When the words all disappear
And the meaning’s crystal clear
You don’t need a grand decree
Just a bit of honesty
[Final Chorus – Big, Playful Vocals]
Raspberries
(A Bronx cheer)
Blowing a raspberry
(Intent is clear)
Raspberries
(Year to year)
Blowing a raspberry
(…very…)
Raspberries
(Loud and free)
Blowing a raspberry
(Just let it be)
[Outro – Whistle + Fade Out]
…very…
…very…
(Raspberry)
[Silence]
