lyrics

I was bad before I was born
I ate my twin inside the womb When it came to one of us
It was only me, who left that tomb
In my town when pets went missing It took a while ‘fore folk guessed When the finger finally pointed
It was my pleasure to confess
I don’t know what I don’t I have never cast a vote
I prefer to stay firmly off the grid And as time transpires
I wade further in the mire
People will know the work that I did
Evil is just a way of saying He ain’t playing by the rules
See your frightened little faces Hypocrites all kinds of fools

Don’t regret the pain I caused Only things I’ve not yet done People lack a sense of purpose Mine was there since time began

I don’t know what I don’t I have never cast a vote
I prefer to stay firmly off the grid And as things transpires
I wade further into the mire
People will know the work that I did

Frank From Blue Velvet Hastings, UK

A Hastings based band merging big film scores, jangling guitar riffs and dancing swing beats. Songs that paint vivid pictures of corruption, redemption and flawed individuals. Misfits, oddballs and broken toys.
