Culture today
Holding up a mirror to today's society. Social media. How it exploits people's greatest natural weakness - vanity - for profit and social engineering. Fractured attention spans, decadence, self-obsession. And how people, particularly young women, fall for it.
(stressin’)
Welcome to the gates of counter-comformistic show
Where mass appeal will get you fired
You’re drawn to it, you can’t deny it
New wave vibrates through your head, uh
Just in time
Vanity pinnacle in culture today
It’s never been this bad
We have lost our way, hey
But you do what you gotta do, girl
Same old stench in the same high place
Same dumb songs with the same ratchet faces
With the only motivation being mass dirtification
Recommended imitation in vanity celebration
Wrecking tongues
Selling their theories what’s right is wrong
Have we not have much sense
To just come to our sense
And not follow examples of grim decadence
(decadence, deca-decadence, decadence)
But you do what you gotta do, girl
Whip out that body and show it to all
Whooping aspirations in carnal glamour
Have a battle with collagen
Though you’re doomed to be sagging
May I tempt you to transcend
This dehumanising trend
Right on time, you girl
I empathise with y’all, ooh
Female empowered has a moral spine
Is dignified, sharpens her mind
Ooh baby
We took the greatest human weakness,
Now gave it a platform,
Spread this sickness
What is going on today
Having brain is cast away
Ooh baby
Flawed is human nature
Culture today
We lost our way
They will be lovers of self
Lovers of money, boastful
I ain’t got time honey,I don’t care about your money
Just to make it clear
What is happening with you, girl?
Is this the only way to get by?
Same old stench in the same high place
With the only motivation being mass dirtification
Imitation circus in vain celebration
Vain celebration
Vain celebration
