[Instrumental Intro: Funky Rock Groove, Sharp Guitar Stabs, Driving Bass, Punchy Drums]<\/p>\n

[Verse 1]
\nI was walking through an ordinary day
\nNothing special, same old gray
\nThen she turned and dropped that line
\nA lightning bolt went through my mind<\/p>\n

I froze up, didn\u2019t know what to do
\nDidn\u2019t see that coming through
\nEvery thought just hit the floor
\nLike I\u2019d never been there before<\/p>\n

[Pre-Chorus]
\nIt wasn\u2019t loud, it wasn\u2019t wild
\nJust a single verbal dial
\nTurned me all the way around
\nUpside down without a sound<\/p>\n

[Chorus]
\nMy eyes (popped!)
\nOutta my head
\nWhen I heard what she said<\/p>\n

My eyes (popped!)
\nOutta my skull
\nSurprise… eyes
\n(Popped!)
\n… never gets dull<\/p>\n

My jaw (dropped!)
\nRight to the ground
\nDidn\u2019t even make a sound<\/p>\n

[Instrumental Break: Guitar Riff, Snare Hits, Cartoon FX Accents]<\/p>\n

[Verse 2]
\nNow I replay it in my brain
\nLike a broken record chain
\nEvery time I think I\u2019m fine
\nIt rewinds that moment line by line<\/p>\n

Friends all laugh when I explain
\nSay I\u2019m acting kind of insane
\nBut they weren\u2019t there to see
\nThe way she rearranged me<\/p>\n

[Pre-Chorus]
\nIt was simple, it was sly
\nJust a twist of word and eye
\nNow I\u2019m stuck on what she said
\nRunning loops inside my head<\/p>\n

[Chorus]
\nMy eyes (popped!)
\nOutta my head
\nWhen I heard what she said<\/p>\n

My eyes (popped!)
\nOutta my skull
\nSurprise… eyes
\n(Popped!)
\n… never gets dull<\/p>\n

My mind (flipped!)
\nRight upside down
\nStill spinning round and round<\/p>\n

[Bridge]
\nDidn\u2019t see it coming in
\nLike a grin beneath her grin
\nOne small phrase and boom\u2014impact
\nNo way now to take it back<\/p>\n

Everything I thought I knew
\nChanged in one quick point of view
\nNow I\u2019m stuck on replay mode
\nOverloaded, overload<\/p>\n

[Breakdown: Minimal Beat, Spoken Hook]
\nPopped\u2026
\nRight out my head\u2026
\nYeah\u2026 she said what she said\u2026<\/p>\n

[Build: Drum Roll, Rising Guitar Feedback]<\/p>\n

[Final Chorus]
\nMy eyes (popped!)
\nOutta my head
\nWhen I heard what she said<\/p>\n

My eyes (popped!)
\nOutta my skull
\nSurprise… eyes
\n(Popped!)
\n… never gets dull<\/p>\n

My heart (stopped!)
\nThen sped ahead
\nLike it never had been fed<\/p>\n

[Outro]
\n[Groove fades, echoing vocal chops]<\/p>\n

Popped\u2026
\nOutta my head\u2026
\nPopped\u2026
\nOutta my head\u2026<\/p>\n

[Final Hit]
\n(Still popped!)
\n… at least I ain’t dead<\/p>\n
