Evil Genius lyrics

Artist  : Pat Benatar 
Song : Evil Genius



 Send "Evil Genius" Ringtone to your Cell 

 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
