Song Information:
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.
Song Lyrics:
Here come the bombs bombs, raining on down
Pushing through the roofs roofs, blowing up the town
Taking away the souls souls, who never did a thing
Looking for the bombs bombs, never find a thing
Take it to Iraq Iraq, finish daddy's war
Run up the debt debt, spend a little more
Dick's got your ear ear, can't think for yourself
Could you do the job job, if he were dead?
We must evolve
Talking to the Lord Lord, got him on the phone
Put him on hold hold, leave the gays alone
Trying to tell us all all, what we should think
He's got his whole team team, pushing out the ink
Religion is the way way, believe or go to hell
You're a bad man man, if you don't do it well
Want to put our cross cross, right on your lawn
Shove it down your throat throat, until your doubts are gone
We must evolve
Welcome to the land land, the home of the free
But that only counts counts, if you look like me
The American dream dream, buy it for yourself
No one else else, keep it for yourself
We must evolve
