Lyrics
Vanity Verse 1: Back once again, this news just in It seems you need to be more thin And while you’re at it make your skin A tanner shade of melanin You ought to check your figure Take a look into the mirror Hips too wide, Bust too small You’re not beautiful at all We’re becoming much too hollow Gag on the lies that we try to swallow Making lust our duty We forget the simple beauty Who needs love, compassion? Sit there and eat these ashes Die in your inadequacy What? Chorus: And are we drowning in our vanities? Another cup of sawdust, hold the sugar if you please There’s got to be something more than chalky faces and bleached hair But I guess we bought the lie and it seems nobody cares Verse 2: Go ahead, eat more of that Pile on the carbs and fat And for an after dinner snack Some nice syrup of ipecac There you go | now you’re thin Who’s to say that that’s a sin? Body is Gods temple, right, Don’t you want it looking nice? “Takes only seven days, And works in pure organic ways,” Protein shakes | health food bars, You look fine the way you are Shoot some Botox in your face, And nip and tuck nature’s mistakes, Be sure to pay your surgeon well . . . Bridge: And what we need now is the guts to disdain Harrowing images tarnish and stain Our souls are on fire; we’ll stand and be counted As ones who leave no one behind or unwanted I hope it’s enough that we’ve planted the seed And yet all around me these broken hearts bleed We’ve fallen from grace and our father Worshipping pleasure we worship each other
