Lyrics

Jesse pintado

Name your price for progress
Impoverished settle the bill
Clear a path - coming through !
Clear a path - coming through !

Stylise
Make it easy / on the eye
Keep our distance -
Too under-formed to grace the 'sublime'

Flatter to deceive
Building arthouse cosmetics
Like a mismatched prosthetic
Like a mismatched prosthetic

Spreads llike wildfire
Burgeoning yuppie nirvana
Highbrow aesthetics
Decadents always crave more

Marvel at / the sleek design
The wilting talk / of curves and lines
A piece-de / -resistance
To banish my pig-ignorance

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
Access denied ? accept we're cultural slime
Access denied ? accept we're cultural slime
