Liner Notes

I have a character named Dr. Romulus--a mad scientist bent on world domination. He's probably got a henchman. I just haven't named them. Yet.

Lyrics

Who will count the ins and outs of each breath you take?
Who will measure, keep and treasure, each mess you make?
Who is gonna light the fire that burns in your wake?
Who’ll discover, then go cover up your mistakes?
It’s me…

Who’ll record your screaming hordes as they swarm out of sight?
Deny the pleas of your enemies as they cry in the night?
Crush your detractors and their families for spite?
Who’ll repay, in every way, each perceived slight.
It’s me…

More than a servant, less than a friend,
More like a loyal means to each end
That you don’t have to pay…

Who’ll reward your minions for their fidelity?
Who’ll design, repair and find, your evil machinery?
Who’ll take the blame for every untimely defeat,
But wants no credit, praise or merit, when you succeed?
It’s me…

Henchmen are unrated and undervalued. Nice job bringing attention to them. I really enjoyed this song. Well played and recorded. Most importantly, a good story.

Reminds me of a more sophisticated "Skullcrusher Mountain" . *Chef's kiss* It's super fun.
