"OK, so that was a pretty good beginning song. Can't wait to see what's next!" Kaminari said with excitement.
"While this is not typically the music I listen to, I'm always open to hear new music. With that said, I'm looking forward to hear more from your guy's work." Momo said.
"Let's get to it." Shoji said before the title appeared.
Ball Tongue
"Ball Tongue? The hell is a ball tongue?" Mineta asked to which Shoto answered.
"It's about someone from Midoriya's past who could roll his tongue into a ball. And it's also similar to a nickname he had for that person. Though he never specified who that person was."
Bakugo's eyes narrowed at the explanation.
"Well let's get to it." Jiro said as she slightly bounced in her seat.
The song immediately began with an explosion of guitars along with the drums and bass. Before stopping with a little bass and burst of Shoto and Hitoshi's guitar before going into the main riff.
"Damn, this already sounds awesome!" Kirishima said as he nodded his head to the beat.
The riff cut to a little drum best along with the bass playing. Shoto played a little tune that sound like DJ scratches before Midoriya sang in a low tone.
Midoriya: There you are alone... With no hope of ever having something to be proud of. Something earned without begging. Yes, I know you're a person, a person close to me... Who do you think you are? What more do you want from me?!
The chorus began with Shoto shouting the title but Midoriya was spouting something that wasn't quite clear to the class. He does it after Shoto shouts the title.
Shoto: Ball Tongue!
Midoryia: (Gibberish)
Shoto: Ball Tongue!
Midoriya: (Gibberish)
Shoto: Ball Tongue!
Midoriya: (Gibberish)
Shoto: Ball Tongue!
Midoriya: (Gibberish)
"Well this is already weird." Sato says.
"Which part? How Midoriya sings in this one or the words he says in the chorus?" Shoto asks to which Iida answered.
"Well truthfully, I want to know what Midoriya was saying in the chorus. A couple other students said "Yeah."
"Well it still boggles my brain but truthfully, Midoriya wasn't saying any actual lyrics. It was just him saying gibberish things. He calls it scatting or something like that." Mina said.
"Interesting bit I suppose that works because it's Midoriya."
It went back to the small bit with the drums and bass before Midoryia sang once again.
Midoriya: Why are you at home buried in your own self pity? Why do you insist on living the life clean out of me? Yes, I know you're the person, the person that took time with me. Does it give you the right to expect your life revolves around me?!
The chorus began with more Midoriya scatting after Shoto shouts the title.
Shoto: Ball Tongue!
Midoriya: (Scatting)
Shoto: Ball Tongue!
Midoriya: (Scatting)
Shoto: Ball Tongue!
Midoriya: (Scatting)
Shoto: Ball Tongue!
Midoriya: (Scatting)
Shoto: Ball Tongue!
Midoriya: (Scatting)
Shoto: Ball Tongue!
Midoriya: (Scatting)
Shoto: Ball Tongue!
Midoriya: (Scatting)
Shoto: Ball Tongue!
Midoriya: (Scatting)
Midoriya: You were my brother... Where does our friendship end? You were my brother... Where does our friendship end? You were my brother... Where does our friendship end?
Midoriya: You were my... I'm not going to give in...
The music stopped before playing with some guitar scratches and a funky bass and drums but it was in poor quality with white noise.
"Now that's a nice little touch. Very funky." Sero said as he nodded his head and moved his body slightly.
It went back to the original riff as Midoriya sang.
Midoriya: You were my brother... Where does our friendship end? You were my brother... Where does our friendship end? You were my brother... Where does our friendship end?
Midoryia: You were my... I'm not going to give in.
The music was lowered but started to build up as Midoriya repeated the lyrics.
Midoriya: How can you fuck'n doubt me, but not again[X7]
"Did... Did Deku just curse?" Ochaco asked with wide eyes.
Everyone except for the band mates present were surprised.
"I've... Never heard him swear before." Iida admitted.
"I guess music gives him a chance to let it all out." Momo said "Though it is still surprising to hear someone like Midoryia swear."
"Believe us, we were just as surprised. But you get used to it." Shoji said though one of his arms turning into a mouth.
Bakugo sneered as he knew what Midoriya was saying. As if he saying it directly to him. Calling him out for his behavior. It pissed him off.
The song went back to the original riff as the chorus began.
Shoto: Ball Tongue!
Midoriya: (Scatting)
Shoto: Ball Tongue!
Midoriya: (Scatting)
Shoto: Ball Tongue!
Midoriya: (Scatting)
Shoto: Ball Tongue!
Midoriya: (Scatting)
Shoto: Ball Tongue!
Midoriya: (Scatting)
Shoto: Ball Tongue!
Midoriya: (Scatting)
Shoto: Ball Tongue!
Midoriya: (Scatting)
Shoto: Ball Tongue!
Midoriya: (Scatting)
The riff started to shift but still keep the same tube while Midoriya said some more gibberish before doing one last chorus with Shoto now screaming the title.
Shoto: Ball Tongue!
Midoriya: (Scatting)
Shoto: Ball Tongue!
Midoriya: (Scatting)
Shoto: Ball Tongue!
Midoriya: (Scatting)
Shoto: Ball Tongue!
Midoriya: (Scatting)
Shoto: Ball Tongue!
Midoriya: (Scatting)
Shoto: Ball Tongue!
Midoriya: (Scatting)
Shoto: Ball Tongue!
Midoriya: (Scatting)
Shoto: Ball Tongue!
Midoriya: (Scatting)
The song began to fade out with a metal keg being hit while Midoriya was screaming out as if he was in absolute pain.
Everyone took a deep breath and Mina asked everyone with a cheery tone "So what did you guys think of it?"
"It was pretty good. So far I'm liking what you guys did." Jiro said with a soft smile.
"That scream at the end... Was Midoriya OK? Ribbit." Tsu asked.
"Well we only know that the guy that could ball his tongue was close to Midoriya but I suppose he wasn't as close as Midoriya thought." Shoto said.
"Yeah we were pretty shaken by his screams. I mean we've heard him cry, you know the water works he's got but this... This was just more... Painful." Mina said with a frown.
There was an uncomfortable silence as everyone mulled over what exactly happened to Midoriya.
"Let's move on, shall we?" Toru asked.
Everyone nodded and turned their attention to the screen for the next song.
