(The Public Get) What The Public Doesn't Want — Napalm Death

Jesse pintado

Name your price for progress Impoverished settle the bill Clear a path - coming through ! Clear a path - coming through !

Stylise Make it easy / on the eye Keep our distance - Too under-formed to grace the 'sublime'

Flatter to deceive Building arthouse cosmetics Like a mismatched prosthetic Like a mismatched prosthetic

Spreads llike wildfire Burgeoning yuppie nirvana Highbrow aesthetics Decadents always crave more

Marvel at / the sleek design The wilting talk / of curves and lines A piece-de / -resistance To banish my pig-ignorance

The public gets / what the public doesn't want What use is this / to man or beast It glosses over / basic needs

The public gets / what the public doesn't want Access denied ? we're utter philistines Access denied ? we're utter philistines

Caged in / the exclusion zone Pass away / in sepia tones Access denied ? accept we're cultural slime Access denied ? accept we're cultural slime
