Liner Notes

Was just messing about with mixing a bit of 4/4 with 3/4 (testing my drumming abilities). Verses are 4/4 and chorus to 3/4.

For those who like the gear stuff - Recorded on a Zoom R8, Vocals done with the internal mics. Guitars used Epiphone SG, Squire Precision Bass and Alesis Performance pad for the drums

Lyrics

There's the guy with the slate blue eyes,
He's always making all kinds of sacrifice,
To prove he is the man,
Come and join the band.

And he's the only child of an only child,
Always got his way,
Never one to be wild,
If you believe everything the papers say then,
He can only be, only be, only be evil.
If you believe what you hear today then,
He can only be, only be, only be evil.
If you believe what the haters say,
He can only be, only be, only be evil.

There she stands with her ruby red lips,
Power stance with her hands on her hips,
She's never done any wrong,
She just played along.

And she's the only child of an only child,
Always got her way,
Never one to be wild,
If you believe everything the papers say then,
She can only be, only be, only be evil.
If you believe what you hear today then,
She can only be, only be, only be evil.
If you believe what the haters say,
She can only be, only be, only be evil.

There they go in their sharp black suits,
Turn their back on their family roots,
It's just a five year plan,
To do as much as they can.

And they're the only child of an only child,
Always got their way,
Never one to be wild,
If you believe everything the papers say then,
They can only be, only be, only be evil.
If you believe what you hear today then,
They can only be, only be, only be evil.
If you believe what the haters say then,
They can only be, only be, only be evil.
If you believe what you hear today then,
They can only be, only be, only be evil.
If you believe what the haters say then,
They can only be, only be, only be evil.
If you believe what you hear today then,
They can only be, only be, only be evil.
