From Vanity To Utility

All this external affluence
Put in place to distract you from reality

Superfluous to our needs
It's the way the powers maintain
The status quo class alignment
Stratification of the rich and the poor
Based on spending power

Superfluous to our needs
It's the way the powers maintain
The status quo class alignment
Stratification of the rich and the poor
Based on spending power

They'll distract you (from vanity to utility)

All this external affluence
Put in place to distract you from reality

Superfluous to our needs
It's the way the powers
Maintain the status quo

We need to progress
From vanity to utility
It's the way the world
That must be brought back to us
It's the way the world
That must be brought back
