Artist/Band: Pat Benatar
Lyrics for Song: Evil Genius
Lyrics for Album: Precious Time [1981]



They were so ecstatic when the letter arrived

A certified genius at the age of five

They planned his future so carefully

He was everthing they 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', cause his fingerprints on the gun



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 anytime you held a grudge?



Was it something said that pushed you over the line?

Your best interest were in our minds

You kept it so well hidden, we never knew

No one ever expected anything like this from you



Why'd ya' have to do it evil genius?

Was it justified in your mind anytime you held a grudge?

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

Was it justified in your mind anytime you held a grudge?



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 anytime you held a grudge?
