Mannequin Social

A social butterfly never to spread its wings indulgence in lust to hide the shame call it what 
you will yet in bullets never to seek vengeance it seeks gratification on the request of 
obsession the anti is more than meets the eyes in a plastic world the lawless lead by 
tradition. It takes pleasure to wear a crown of temptation to take after Adam and Eve a 
disgrace that takes it place ease the frustrated hysteria control the nervous masses inflict an 
emotional disturbance through yearning,turn all land to waste institutionalize the uncivilized 
preach the morality of harlots and wicked shepherds in bliss the ballot of touch through trust 
is a must.

Premium Member An Ize Sort of Day

In this world we criticize
When will we realize
That sometimes we should fantasize
Instead of ostercise

We try to commercialize
And revolutionize
And even capitalize
When all we should do is harmonize

In this world we colonize
And some terrorize
And then pulverize
And we institutionalize

It is a world where we advertise
Go crazy with exercise
Want food pasteurized
And drink milk homogenized

Then we coat  it caramelized
Not showing what we despise
Because we try to revolutionize
Instead of realize
