UGLY Songtext
von slowthai

Toy soldiers
In lines
Fall like dominoes
One mans trash
Is cash
For some it′s liquid gold
Said that you love me
You make me feel ugly
You said that you love me
But you make me feel ugly
TV screens
Adverts
And the grown men
Crying like infants
For no reason
People
Make mountains out of mud hills
Boys with their toys
Flexing their muscles

When pigments a depiction of class
When your body has to be wine glass
You drop your guard
You realise it's hard
It′s ugly
Loving is brittle plastic
But soft in the middle
The same as skittles
When vultures perch with a piercing grin
Your boss won't fuck off and you're on the brink
The rent is due and you′re overspent
The world is ugly
(The world is ugly)
(The world is ugly)
(The world is ugly)

I′m sick of toying with a broken idea
I'm sick of thinking there′s a reason I'm here
We′re just puppets in a simulation
We're just puppets in a simulation
With a pipe dream like a pipe bomb in the 80s
White screen
Being brainwashed to a regime
Stuck getting lead like we′re dogs out the kennel
All this trauma in the name of a medal

U - G - L - Y

When I'm not around
10 minutes to late
To say you're sorry
At first they love you
Then they′re stubbing you out
We kill each other
For some juice
And a bit of clout

In progress
We test man made devices
Getting tired of migrants
The only ones trying
Cut the tension with a butter knife
You are not in control
The moment the world stands still
You are not in control
The moment the world stands still
You are not in control
