Agnes Manners - Worship

Does the brain corrupt?
Worshipping our celebrity oligarch
We put a premium on presentation
And cosmetic lust
Sat down to watch inanity stand up.

A created fantasia
A villain for your pyre
Or anything that you desire
(Will it be enough
Will it ever be?)
So are we entertained
Or circling the drain?

We need a little stimulation
Nothin' like a bit of new age objectification
Making ornaments and avatars
Of people propped on stages
Masturbatory inspiration for the cages
It’s cosmetic lust
Redirected blood.

A created fantasia
A villain for your pyre
Or anything that you desire
(Will it be enough
Will it ever be?)
So are we entertained
Or circling the drain?

A created fantasia
A villain for your pyre
Or anything that you desire
(Will it be enough
Will it ever be?)
So are we entertained
Or circling the same old drain?
