7. Things Better Left Undead

Hey, I've decided to release all the other songs from my album onto Newgrounds. Some of you may recognize some riffs in these tunes as riffs in some of my 8-bit work - infact, I wrote these, and then reworked parts of them into chiptune down the line. So while the 8-bit versions were published first, you could consider some of these songs the "Original Version" of certain tunes.


You ever come up with a title, and then work backwards from there? Yeah.


...


Alright, in all seriousness - this was inspired in part by the idea of the traditional voodoo zombie, of being an undead state of permanent servitude. So this song is essentially about a man who personally organizes the zombie apocalypse as a means of rule. The riffs were written the way they are because someone in a video said that it's impossible for the whole tone scale to have a key center - in my brain, challenge accepted.


All instruments and vocals were done by me. I'm not an amazing singer, but it's not like I was gonna get anyone else to do it, so I did it myself.


Here are the lyrics :


Dr. Moninov was a lauded scientist

Started the zombie apocalypse

Built a structure deep underground

To act as his personal compound


He kidnaps people from the streets

Or offers them a safe place to be

Once he's done, he's often said

Some things are better left undead


He infects the healthy so as to zombify

And they act as his slaves after they die


He kidnaps people from the streets

Or offers them a safe place to be

Once he's done, he's often said

Some things are better left undead
