(The Public Gets) What the Public...
Name your price for progress
Impoverished settle the bill
Clear a path--coming through!
Clear a path--coming through!
Stylize
Making it easy on the eye
Keep our distance--too underformed to grace the sublime
Flatter to deceive
Building arthouse cosmetics
Like a mismatched prosthetic
Like a mismatched prosthetic
Spreads like wildfire
Burgeoning yuppie nirvana
Highbrow aesthetics
Decadents always crave more
Crave
More
Crave
Marvel at the sleek design
The wilting talk of curves and lines
A piece-de resistance
To banish my pig-norance
The public gets what the public doesn't want
What use is this to man or beast
It glosses over basic needs
The public gets what the public doesn't want
Access denied we're utter philistines
Access denied we're utter philistines
Caged in the exclusion zone
Pass away in sepia tones
The public gets what the public doesn't want
Access denied? Accept we're cultural slime
Access denied? Accept we're cultural slime
Access denied
Impoverished settle the bill
Clear a path--coming through!
Clear a path--coming through!
Stylize
Making it easy on the eye
Keep our distance--too underformed to grace the sublime
Flatter to deceive
Building arthouse cosmetics
Like a mismatched prosthetic
Like a mismatched prosthetic
Spreads like wildfire
Burgeoning yuppie nirvana
Highbrow aesthetics
Decadents always crave more
Crave

Crave

The wilting talk of curves and lines

To banish my pig-norance
The public gets what the public doesn't want
What use is this to man or beast

The public gets what the public doesn't want
Access denied we're utter philistines
Access denied we're utter philistines
Caged in the exclusion zone
Pass away in sepia tones
The public gets what the public doesn't want
Access denied? Accept we're cultural slime
Access denied? Accept we're cultural slime
Access denied
