I wrote almost all the lyrics under a lunch in a deserted workshop. It was a dirty and tarnished place, and above was a supermarket with heavy commerce. It was like I stood outside of the world looking in with a caveman's perspective.
Later that same day, we came up with the music for the verse and chorus. we may do some more adjustments to it later on but we decided to put it on tape. So we recorded it with a stereo microphone under a rehearsal.
Go ahead and listen!

lyrics
I’m a savage
Dressed up with a tie
And my hunting ground is shopping centre
I’m a killer
Living out the civilized lie
And here’s a privileged class I can’t enter
THEY CALL ME THE WHISTLER
THEY CALL ME THE TRAITOR
I AM THE UNEASY FEEL
I AM THE CANE IN THEIR WHEEL
I’m a soldier
Fighting the unthankful fight
But my ammunition is running out
I’m a hater
I feel no doubt
And big brother better know I’m ready to bite
You are the whistler
I am the anti-greed
You are the horn blower
I am the anarchy
You are whistler
I am eternal bleed
You are the horn blower
I’m gonna set you free
