R&B-Funk
BPM 112
[Each Sax Solo, Chorus and Verse is 8 bars long. Lyrics are spoken, darkly.]
Intro of 4 bars
Sax Solo 1
Chorus:
I CREATED A MONSTER
Totally gross and full-on depraved
Not one single saving grace has it
And its sustenance is my rant and rave
Sax Solo 2
Verse 1:
Though it's unrecognisable
Its voice and clothes are near as dammit the same as mine
Which is no mystery
Cos it's my darker side incarnate brought to the forefront all this time
Repeat Chorus
Sax Solo 3
Verse 2:
Here we stand at this crossroads now
A leap of faith from you I need so we can rewind
Back to our fresh and good
To what the two of us delighted in before my internal monster made me blind
Repeat Chorus
Sax Solo 4
Repeat Chorus
