Lyrics for The Beautiful People
And I don't want you, and I don't need you Don't bother to resist, or I'll beat you It's not your fault that you're always wrong The weak ones are there to justify the strong The beautiful people, the beautiful people It's all relative to the size of your steeple You can't see the forest for the trees And you can't smell your own shit on your knees There's no time to discriminate Hate every motherfucker that's in your way Hey you, what do you see? Something beautiful, something free? Hey you, are you trying to be mean? When you live with apes, man, it's hard to be clean The worms will live in every host It's hard to tell which one they hate the most The horrible people, the horrible people It's all anatomic as the size of your steeple Capitalism has made it this way Old-fashioned fascism Will take it away Hey you, what do you see? Something beautiful, something free? Hey you, are you trying to be mean? When you live with apes, man, it's hard to be clean There's no time to discriminate Hate every motherfucker that's in your way Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey The beautiful people, the beautiful people The beautiful people, the beautiful people The beautiful people, the beautiful people The beautiful people, the beautiful people Hey, you, what do you see? Something beautiful and something free? Hey you, are you trying to be mean? When you live with apes, man, it's hard to be clean Hey, you, what do you see? Something beautiful and something free? Hey you, are you trying to be mean? When you live with apes, man, it's hard to be clean The beautiful people, the beautiful people The beautiful people, the beautiful people The beautiful people, the beautiful people The beautiful people, the beautiful people
