Liner Notes

Loosely inspired by a crappy murder mystery book I read over Christmas

Lyrics

Who was that man in the hall?
You didn't know him at all?
I know you've a secret
Well you can keep it, just tell me
Who was that man in the hall?

He's got a bullet in his chest
Detective wants an arrest
They've got me fingered
Why had I lingered?
He's got a bullet in his chest

Nobody's truly who they say
The priest was murdered today
But he's really another
Your long lost brother
Nobody's truly who they say

I have a particular soft spot for songs-as-whodunnits. This one's particularly engaging. Concise, no fat whatsoever; comes in and gets the job done in under two minutes. Nice one!

This is one of my favorite kinds of songs that come out of FAWM. I love when people just sit down with an instrument and create. This also paints a great picture of this not-so-great book. Love it!
