Beauty |
| Beauty is a harlot |
| She will dance with any bastard |
| She’s undiscerning in her choice of partners |
| I could have her of course if I wish |
| But I object to her promiscuousness |
| Beauty just doesn’t suit me |
| For beauty is a harlot |
| An easy lay for lazy artists |
| I won’t be fooled by her vulgar charm |
| It is the easiest trick in the book |
| Music’s the worm and beauty’s the hook |
| And I know you would swallow her whole |
| But I’m not here to pander to souls |
| For beauty is a siren |
| Trying to draw me from my chosen mission |
| I won’t be tempted by her seductive singing |
| On principle I refuse to be party to her abuse |
| It is not my job to squat in the gutter |
| Sharing the teat with you beauty drunk suckers |
| You paid to see satire and rage |
| I swear I won’t let beauty set foot on this stage |
| For beauty is a siren |
| A spotlight hungry superficial harlot |
| She will toy with your defenceless heart and leave you |
| Tear streaked when the lights come on |
| You look around to find her gone |
| And despite your sighs you’ve not a clue |
| That as you fell for her, she stole from you |
| For beauty is a harlot |
| She will lie with any two bit artist |
| And for all those other bastards |
| She seems to come so easily |
| But she comes too hard for me |
