For lack of attention And lack of invention They couldn't help it Now we can't stop it With mustered pretention Living in the keyhole The pretty lies are sold Women of appetite eat Cannibal spawn tweet As our credits roll Just out of light In the shadow of right Men counterfeit valor Then duck and cower Lacking a will to fight Fast forward life time Wonder past its prime Cut and paste history To create a mystery Of victimless crime Remember what to say Regurgitate yesterday We salted the earth And lost its worth We lost our way Alone in the corner The facts adorn her Through rise and fall Truth awaits us all As we learn her cure Folly laughing loud The trashy and proud Can't see it there Behind the despair Death with its crowd
