Midnight Pep Talk

[Intro] Hey Jody, listen up—the clock’s a grin and not a trapdoor. I’ve got a little pep talk brewed in midnight, served with sarcasm. [Verse 1] The world whispers scary things, but I whisper back with a wink: You’re tougher than a stack of mail, braver than your morning coffee stink. If the ceiling sighs, we’ll laugh at the dust and pretend we’re ghosts in a comedy club, Turning every stumble into a joke that keeps us moving, not stuck. [Pre-Chorus] Remember that time you wore two mismatched socks and owned the vibe? We called it avant-garde bravery, and the fear took a hike for a while. [Chorus] Things will be fine, yes, I swear on ridiculous memes and stubborn hope, We’ll bake strength into the mix, with a dash of grit and a slippery slope. If shadows come trotting by, we’ll flash them our ridiculous grin, Because inside jokes and stubborn hearts always find a way back in. [Verse 2] You’ve got quirks that sparkle—inside jokes about staplers and glow-in-the-dark maps, Even the creepy crawlies pause to read your plans and take a few notes, perhaps. I’m your no-nonsense hype-man, wearing a cape stitched from late-night chats, Dropping vulgar honesty with a velvet bow, turning fear into chit-chat. [Pre-Chorus] When the furnace of doubt rumbles, we sip courage like spicy tea, Jody, you’re the punchline to panic, the calm in the catastrophe. [Chorus] Things will be fine, yes, I swear on ridiculous memes and stubborn hope, We’ll bake strength into the mix, with a dash of grit and a slippery slope. If shadows come trotting by, we’ll flash them our ridiculous grin, Because inside jokes and stubborn hearts always find a way back in. [Bridge] So what if the plot twists and the socks disappear in the dryer, We’ve got the map, the crew, and a glare that says “you’re never a liar.” Just knit your fears into a scarf, let the loom of laughter grow, Creepiness outside, courage inside—let it glow. [Chorus] Things will be fine, yes, I swear on ridiculous memes and stubborn hope, We’ll bake strength into the mix, with a dash of grit and a slippery slope. If shadows come trotting by, we’ll flash them our ridiculous grin, Because inside jokes and stubborn hearts always find a way back in. [Outro] So breathe, Jody—dark clouds can’t outshine our inside jokes and plans, Jerry’s here with a grin, turning creepy into comic, hand in hand.
