Disturbing Tendencies - by Andy Brook
This is an acoustic piano version of my 2011 song Disturbing Tendencies. One of my darker songs - a story of how fame, drink and drugs can be dangerous for impressionable youngsters, caught up in the excitment of life in the spotlight or on the edge of society. Having said all of that... I hope you will enjoy the song!
Disturbing Tendencies
music and lyrics by Andy Brook
performed by Andy Brook
You were a beautiful baby
Heaven sent, heaven knows
You had a privileged childhood
Boarding school, and it shows
Why is it no-one else can see what I can see?
You need help
You are displaying disturbing tendencies
Drinking too much, taking too many pills
Smoking too much, chasing too many thrills
When are you ever gonna wake up
And where will that be?
Too many nights end in too many fights
You're out for the count, when they turn on the lights
And when are you ever gonna grow up?
You’re worrying me
And will it be before your nemesis will show up?
With your celebrity lifestyle, gutter press stalking you
They set you up just to knock you down
That’s what they… they always do
Now it's becoming clear for everyone to see
You need help!
You are displaying disturbing tendencies
Drinking too much, taking too many pills
Smoking too much, chasing too many thrills
When are you ever gonna wake up
And where will that be?
Too many nights spent in too many fights
You're out for the count, when they turn out the lights
When are you ever gonna grow up?
You’re worrying me
And will it be before your nemesis will show up?
Will it be before you lose the chance to grow up
Are you going to grow up?
You were a beautiful babyHeaven sent, heaven knows
