| This song's fairly obvious, in that it's a protest song against the George W. Bush presidency. I wrote the lyrics after getting fed up of hearing far-right blowhards on news talk shows refuse to show any willingness to compromise or accept change, which I believe to be a fact of life in this world. The world, the universe, us, everything is constantly shifting and changing -- evolving. That's where the chorus, "we must evolve," comes in. What many (not all!) conservatives don't realize is that resisting change and trying to preserve what is is a futile effort that always ends in failure. In terms of the music, this is the only song where the inspiration came almost entirely from the loops and instruments available in GarageBand. Program users will recognize some of those loops, although I added my own guitar, bass line and melodies to the whole ensemble. |
