Description
[Intro]
Raise your voices, light the fire — Derek and Joe, our heart's desire!
(soft acoustic, handclaps)
[Verse 1]
Under the Blue Lantern sign at midnight on Main and Fourth,
Derek taps the counter — three quick knocks, a secret code of sorts.
Joe hums the old radio song while fixing the busted jukebox lights,
They trade a grin and a cigarette, patching up each other's fights.
[Pre-Chorus]
From porch steps to the river bend,
They pull us up, they set the mend.
When the street goes quiet and hope runs low,
They turn the hush into a steady glow.
[Chorus]
Hail Derek, hail Joe — light the night,
Hail Derek, hail Joe — lead the fight.
Hail Derek, hail Joe — stand so tall,
Hail Derek, hail Joe — one and all.
(full band kicks in, gang vocals)
[Verse 2]
Remember the mural on the grain silo, paint still flaking in the June sun,
How they hauled ladders, laughed at the height, signed their names when the work was done.
When the factory closed and the rails fell quiet, they pulled the neighborhood together,
Took old crates and turned them into seats — summer nights there now last forever.
[Pre-Chorus]
They've got a habit, Joe says "hold fast,"
Derek answers with a crooked laugh.
Two stubborn hearts that won't let go,
They carve a map where the lost can go.
[Chorus — Variant]
Hail Derek, hail Joe — names on the sign,
Hail Derek, hail Joe — neon crown, Fifth Street shine.
Hail Derek, hail Joe — ring it loud,
Hail Derek, hail Joe — we sing proud.
[Bridge]
(soft, intimate) When the storm rose and the river climbed the alley stairs,
They ran the flats, they wrapped the records, they kept the music out of the air.
(then build) When the mayor closed the doors and said "it's time to move along,"
They argued, they stayed, they raised the roof — they turned the grief into a song.
[Call & Response]
Leader: Derek! Crowd: Derek!
Leader: Joe! Crowd: Joe!
(Repeat with claps and stomps — three-times echo on each name)
[Final Chorus — Gang Vocals / Key lift]
Hail Derek, hail Joe — light the night,
Hail Derek, hail Joe — lead the fight.
Hail Derek, hail Joe — names in neon glow,
Hail Derek, hail Joe — every rooftop knows.
[Outro]
So raise your voice at the Blue Lantern door, remember what they built and more,
From the diner sign at midnight to the mural on the grain-silo wall,
Hail Derek and Joe — our city's call.
(gradual fade with gang harmonies and a single acoustic guitar)
