There's evil in my chair Yeah, there's evil in my chair There's evil in my chair He's simply sitting over there There's evil in my chair He's simply staring back at me And he is watching my T.V. Yeah, he is staring back at me He wants to keep me company Yeah, there's evil in my house And he needs a ride downtown Yeah, I got to give him a ride downtown Yeah, I'm driving him downtown Because he wants to hang around There's evil in my car He's flicking ashes on my floor He's flicking ashes on my floor He's putting butts out on my floor He knows just what I'm looking for There's evil in my car And he keeps to the down low But he don't like driving slow He knows just where to go Because he's always in the know And evil's gonna drive a while And I'm reeling from the fix And a whiff can make me sick At the time it did the trick Now I don't care if the time ticks And evil's gonna try to get me home I get lost along the way And there's nothing I can say Yeah, I get lost along the way A little farther every day And evil won't admit a Goddamned thing Evil got me home And he thinks I shouldn't be alone Until I'm better he'll be there Its like he really seems to care There's evil in my chair Yeah, it doesn't matter where I will find him waiting there There's evil in my chair Evil in my chair Evil Evil in my chair In my house Evil in my house Evil in my house Evil in my house Evil Evil Gonna live in my house Evil Evil in my house Sit in my chair Watch my tv It doesn't bother me © 1999 John Popper |

There's evil in my chair/He's simply staring back at me John essentially wrote this song about himself. From a 1999 online chat:My recent heart condition is symptomatic to a longtime addiction to food. Being diabetic, it's a medical fact that there are some foods that will kill me. Doughnuts come to mind. One night I was being very good on my diet and I saw an ad for Dunkin Donuts comes on TV. Suddenly I feel as though I'm being pulled to do something destructive, though I didn't want to. I then transferred my addiction into the form of some guardian angel gone wrong. And the song kind of wrote itself. |
