Evil Genius Lyrics

They were so ecstatic when the letter arrived

A certified genius at the age of five

They planned his future so carefully, he was everything they'd hoped he'd be

He was a model child, a devoted son, loved and admired by everyone

He played out every role, a "T.V. Hero", he lived his life in a video fantasy

He was good at school, never failed a grade

They gave him hopes and dreams and taught him not to hate

He had rules he learned to break for fun

Now he's hidin', 'cos there's fingerprints on the gun

Chorus:

Why'd ya have to do it, evil genius? Was it justified in your mind?

Why'd ya put us through it, evil genius?

Was it justified in your mind, any time you held a grudge?

(Instrumental break)

Was it something said that pushed you over the line?

Your best interests were in our minds

You kept it so well hidden, we never knew

No one ever expected anything like this from you

chorus repeats 3x
