(The Public Get) What the Public Doesn’t Want
[Verse 1]
Name your price for progress
Impoverished settle the bill
Clear a path, coming through
Clear a path, coming through
[Verse 2]
Stylise
Make it easy on the eye
Keep our distance
Too under-formed to grace the sublime
[Verse 3]
Flatter to deceive
Building art-house cosmetics
Like a mismatched prosthetic
Like a mismatched prosthetic
[Verse 4]
Spreads like wildfire
Burgeoning yuppie nirvana
Highbrow aesthetics
Decadents always crave more
[Verse 5]
Marvel at the sleek design
The wilting talk of curves and lines
Appease the resistance
To banish my pig-ignorance
[Chorus]
The public gets what the public doesn't want
[Verse 6]
What use is this to man or beast
It glosses over basic needs
[Chorus]
The public gets what the public doesn't want
[Bridge]
Access denied
We're utter philistines
Access denied
We're utter philistines
[Verse 7]
Caged in the exclusion zone
Pass away in sepia tones
[Chorus]
The public gets what the public doesn't want
[Bridge]
Access denied
Accept we're cultural slime
Access denied
Accept we're cultural slime
Access denied
