letra de squeaky shrub tango (famous market remix) - micah vance christinsen

[intro]
beat folds like canvas, dawn over stalls
vendor shouts stitch the kick, pedal steel calls
dj on a milk crate, spinning cups and crates
we dance between the bargains, tango with our fates

[verse 1]
morning breath of onions, citrus like a sunburst
footsteps sync to cart wheels — a rhythm unrehe-rs-d
there’s a shrub at the corner, paint chipped and proud
when the wind hits its hinge it squeaks like a crowd
i take its squeak for a partner, two-step on cracked tile
swap a coin for a smile, trade my worry for a while
market’s a cathedral of bartered hope and names
where the old men sermon bargains and the children play games
i lace my words with the clatter, sample loose-change blues
mix it with the hum of the fridge and a trumpet that refuses to lose

[pre-chorus]
famous for the stories, famous for the smell
famous for the echoes where my little wins dwell
loop the call of the fishmonger, drop the celery chop
squeaky shrub keeps time while the community hops

[chorus]
squeaky shrub tango — step close, don’t let go
we spin on pennies, dream loud in the glow
famous market remix, vendor chorus in the back
dance off the debt, hustle the night into a track
squeaky shrub tango — squeak, sway, repeat
life in the alleys where the rhythm meets the street
[verse 2]
she sells postcards of sunsets, i buy one for the kid
says “keep the corners bright” like the next bad day’s forbid
there’s a woman who knits futures out of thrift-store thread
mends a single shoe, teaches a small heart to tread
i hear the dj scratch a cabbage, loop a bell from the stall
the trumpet flips to tango — kettle drum answers the call
we barter in small miracles, coupon for a laugh
stretch a kilo of rice to buy the month’s photograph
the shrub squeaks a two-beat, like a breath between lines
we step to it like church bells, confessing our designs

[bridge]
and the remix is gentle, it’s the cluck of a chicken, the clink of a cup
it’s a lover’s whisper, a baby’s cough, a vendor calling back up
we fold sorrow into cardboard, press hope with a thumb
spin records on a fruit crate, make a chorus from the hum

[chorus]
squeaky shrub tango — step close, don’t let go
we spin on pennies, dream loud in the glow
famous market remix, vendor chorus in the back
dance off the debt, hustle the night into a track
squeaky shrub tango — squeak, sway, repeat
life in the alleys where the rhythm meets the street
[verse 3 (spoken/sung)]
when the rain comes, the market dons a new coat
umbrellas like planets, conversations afloat
i tip my hat to the shrub; it squeaks like an old friend
reminds me every ending is a chance to pretend
so we tango with the hours, two-step with the crate
make music from the mundane, spin time into fate
famous market keeps beating like a heart with a drum
every squeak a reminder: we’re marching, we’re young

[outro]
dj counts us down — one more loop, one more round
the shrub sings a solo, our feet kiss the ground
squeaky shrub tango — echo long after light
famous market remix — we hustle, we hold, we fight
squeak on, partner — we’ll dance through the night
