When the Hammer Drops

(Crown Brass)

I know I’m a nerd but my wife thinks it’s absurd
When she walks in the room and finds me, swooning
But an old guy like me watching and listening carefully
Has to blast the volume, even if it’s just a little tuning

Surrounded by seventy horns the sound begins to form
A sort of chord progression that feels like a hurricane
Only to hear a discord which quickly leaves me floored
When a pitch perfectly harmony then begins to rain

Here, when the hammer drops my simple grammar stops
It punches my reverberating brain, I find it simply mad
But to a band geek like me it speaks levels of intensity
Because I can’t describe the huge eargasm I just had
