I keep my eyes trained down
Or spark a riot of incredulous outrage at the slightest incongruence
Too quick to chase the crowd
Yes you're a model of affected behaviour and intransigent values
Such a sure fire sign to stomp on your circumstance
Don't need false pleasantries, don't want your sanctimony
Won't shirk controversy
Shout me down, force unity
Don't need your heads in the sand, don't want your Guardian bands
Such a staged cabaret
I don't want your Le Creuset
Facile under façade
A world so anodyne I can't relate or fan the flames of inconsequence
And yet beneath your guard
You get your kicks off softcore subscriber stations then preach about corruption
Such a dirty mind laced with saccharine purity
Don't need false pleasantries, don't want your sanctimony
Won't shirk controversy
Shout me down, force unity
Don't need your heads in the sand, don't want your Guardian bands
Such a staged cabaret
I don't want your Le Creuset
Just stand for something worth seeing
Just stand for something worth saying
Cast against you in social asymmetry
