Fancy PoP
Get up every morning
get up to look around
wither wide-eyed to the sound
of energy and speed abound
being mis-lead, being dwarfed
being torn, being deformed
and beauty, wit and love forlorn
spread out dead along the ground
C:
how far would YOU go
and how much would u kill
for a bigger chunk of the pie
how often would u lie
who would u cheat to or defeat
oh, isnt it a fancy kind of life..
.
I see youth, and I see age
and I watch dedicated slaves
pick and pull on what they think is real
being told just how to act and feel..
in schools that feel like offices
and offices like prison cells
tales of souls kept in cages
aching for a fall..
(keeps me thinking)..
Chorus repeat
Bridge: and if u had beauty
could u deal with it?
and if u had love
appreciate it?
I sometimes think the world is upside down
the floods steady rising, and the tricks not to drown..
.
Outro:
From CEO to stagehand
its time to wake and understand
we're in this together
and if I'll sink u'll sink..
so its time to re-think the career plan..
Fancy, Fancy, Fancy piece of pie
money sex and drugs and lies
- it doesnt matter if we all die
as long as it makes those profits rise..
Hmmmmm........
