Ooh, they say I got the devil in me
Just believe what you want to believe
Your fairy tale's all blown to Hell, Evergreen
'Cause what she seemed ain't all that she seems to be
Been runnin' hard just like some heavy machine
You're falling hard into a heavy scene
Now, what you're thinking is a bit obscene
Come over here, or is the grass too green for you?
You take it on the chin just like a champ
Who's next in line to be your biggest fan, yeah?
Evergreen
Ooh, you know she's coming for you
Evergreen
Yeah, there's no one left to save ya
Overlooked, now you're hooked thinkin' she's so mean
Evergreen
What's it gonna be?
All bred in bone
Black-hearted stone
Leads to a wishing well
Burnin' bright
Under her fiery spell
And as the stars throw down their spears into your jaded heart
Fading fast
She's tearing you apart
Where's the fire burning in your eyes, Evergreen?
Burnt out from all you've seen?
Evergreen
Ooh, you know she's coming for you
Evergreen
Yeah, there's no one left to save ya
Overlooked, now you're hooked thinkin' she's so mean
Evergreen
Everything is gonna to be alright, they say
Just say it, just say it
Go to sleep we're gonna turn off all these lights
Keep praying, I'm praying
Rage, rage against the dying of the light
You know I see the fucking crisis in your smile
I live here waiting for you
Evergreen
Ooh, you know she's coming for you
Evergreen
Yeah, there's no one left to save ya
Overlooked, now you're hooked thinkin' she's so mean
Yeah
Evergreen
Ooh, you know she's coming for you
Evergreen
Yeah, there's no one left to save ya
Overlooked, now you're hooked thinkin' she's so mean
Evergreen
What's it gonna be?
Combining crooned murder ballads with raw, angsty hard rock hooks, Melbourne's The Ugly Kings are a wrecking crew well worth watching. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 15, 2021
