Verse 1 (Spoken-word flow, very cool, very Blondie) I see you leaning in like you own the lease Like you bought the rights to my inner peace You’re checking out the fit, you’re checking out the glow But you’re standing in a lane where you don’t go. Yeah, the hair is real. Yeah, the look is mine. But you’re crossing over a very visible line You’re acting like a fan who jumped the rail But this item, baby? It’s not for sale. Pre-Chorus (Beat stays heavy, vocals get a bit more rhythmic) Look all you want, it’s a free-view show But there’s a limit to how far you go You’re getting warm, you’re getting close But I’m the one who decides the dose. Chorus (Huge, chantable, the "viral" moment) Hands off the merch! (Clap, clap) Hands off the merch! Look but don’t touch, you’re doing too much Move it on back, you’re losing your clutch Hands off the merch! (Clap, clap) Hands off the merch! If you want a piece, you gotta do the work Until then, baby... Hands off the merch! Verse 2 (Bass gets even funkier) You’re trying to name-drop, trying to impress Like a discount suit in a designer mess You say you know the owner? Well, the owner is me. And I’m revoking your temporary security. Take a mental picture, keep it on file But keep your fingers off the high-end style It’s a "strictly visual" situation Consider this your formal notification. Pre-Chorus (Build up — percussion adds in) Look all you want, it’s a free-view show But there’s a limit to how far you go You’re getting warm, you’re getting close But I’m the one who decides the dose. Chorus (Maximum volume) Hands off the merch! (Clap, clap) Hands off the merch! Look but don’t touch, you’re doing too much Move it on back, you’re losing your clutch Hands off the merch! (Clap, clap) Hands off the merch! If you want a piece, you gotta do the work Until then, baby... Hands off the merch! Bridge (The "Breakdown" — just the bass and a cowbell) Step back. (Step back) Eyes up. (Eyes up) Line’s drawn. (Line’s drawn) Give it up. (Give it up) (Vocal whisper) It’s limited edition. (Shouted) AND YOU DON'T HAVE THE COUPON! Final Chorus (Ad-libs, high energy, the whole room is shouting) Hands off the merch! (Clap, clap) Hands off the merch! Look but don’t touch, you’re doing too much Move it on back, you’re losing your clutch Hands off the merch! (Clap, clap) Hands off the merch! If you want a piece, you gotta do the work Until then, baby... Hands off the merch! [Outro — just that iconic bassline fading out, with one final dry comment] "No, really. Put it back." (Snap)
