Sickening Society

by Chris C - Taurus


I grimace at what I see
This pitiful, sickening society
It’s about nothing but being “cool”
Desire this - let society make you a fool

I see brainless blondes caked in cosmetics
Adorning each other about their aesthetics
Meaningless gossips over a toxic smoke
Be uncool? Ha, they’d rather choke
Intelligence, who needs that
I just do not want to become fat
If I may, a pondering question
In those clothes do you get circulation
So embarrassing if you have your virginity still
Keep on doing it for fun and take your pill
Cling to your big, tattooed, pierced, muscled men
Intelligence radiates from them again and again
Riding around in their lowered, stickered, amplified car
Concerned about how they and their women got – how far
They communicate in their astonishing jargon
As well, comes their “cool” limp, what a bargain
Who drunk the most, who was wasted over the weekend
Who cares, maybe the wizard has for you, a brain to lend
Can you possibly wear anymore gold around your neck
Most certainly you’re “cool,” you’re the ace of the deck
No, really, you’re all a bunch of fake, walking billboards
It’s scary how so many children join these hordes
These days it’s so “hip,” so “cool,” to be “in”
Yes, festering archetypes of the 90’s once again
You have sex, you party, you smoke, you drink
Oh yes, without a doubt you’re “cool,” I think

Indeed you sicken me
You puppets of society

Reason for writing:

    Society...
