about

Queensland singer-songwriter Bobby Maguire has released his heaviest track yet with hard hitting single Vigilante.

This high energy rocker is accompanied by a hilarious video clip featuring some of Cairns’ most notorious characters.

Inspired by a less than favourable experience with authorities, Vigilante is an intricately deceptive combination of musical elements pulling together to raise a middle finger to those on top. The song shouts back at hypocritical elites on behalf of everyday people with a punchy chorus straight to the point; ‘One rule for you, one rule for me! Tonight lights out, we go Vigilante!”

Bobby Maguire has drawn on influences from fellow Queensland artists Violent Soho and Powderfinger to bring Vigilante to life. This Frankenstein of a song sews together thick guitar riffs with clever lyrics and explosive hooks, capturing anger and frustration before releasing it in a healthy dose of rock.

lyrics

All you know is coming from
Drones not starving with your brand new
Clothes your heart is
Cutting your face up to spite your nose

One rule for you one rule for me
Tonight lights out we go vigilante

All unknown and
Ready to go you know
Ready to show what you own
Just about ready to blow
Not a victim, you’re a foe
The Enemy
Lies in between
Me and you, you and me
Skin thin just look and see
Cleo’s got you, what you believe

One rule for you one rule for me
Tonight lights out we go vigilante

The way the way the world turns
It makes, it makes me want to curl up
The way, the way we all were
And stay, its way too hard today

All you know is coming from
Drones not starving with your brand new
Clothes your heart is
Cutting your face up to spite your nose

One rule for you one rule for me
Tonight lights out we go vigilante

One rule for you one rule for me
Tonight lights out we go vigilante

The way the way the world turns
It makes, it makes me want to curl up
The way, the way we all were
And stay, its way too hard today
