The Breeze Card

Lyrics

[Intro — instrumental only, no vocals]
[a card taps, a fare-gate beeps, a turnstile clacks; the beat builds]
[Instrumental build — still no singing, let the groove settle in]
[Instrumental — the beeps and the strings carry it alone]

[Verse 1 — vocals enter at last]
Tap the plastic on the glowing pad,
the gate swings open, the best you've had;
a million riders in the morning rush,
the Breeze card beeping through the human crush.

[Chorus]
Breeze, Breeze, tap and beep,
the fare-gate rhythm that the city keeps;
tap, beep, clack, let the turnstile spin,
the little blue card lets the whole town in.

[Verse 2]
Load it up at the kiosk light,
the green light flashing and the gate swings right;
from Doraville down to the airport gate,
the Breeze card carrying the daily freight.

[Chorus]
Breeze, Breeze, tap and beep,
the fare-gate rhythm that the city keeps;
tap, beep, clack, let the turnstile spin,
the little blue card lets the whole town in.

[Outro — vocals stop here]
[Instrumental — the fare-gate rides out alone, no more singing]
[Long instrumental outro — the groove fades slowly all the way down to silence]
