They tell you what is beautiful
To make you feel unsure
They tell you young is beautiful
And say that you're - mature
They tell you time is running out
You put your life on hold
Start running after "beautiful"
That phony tale they told

Don't pay the price
You'll pay it twice
First with your soul
Then with your money

They sell you what is beautiful
To make you feel assured
You try to buy back beauty
Which from you away they tore
You cannot purchase confidence
Your spirit can't be bailed
So why are you behaving like
Your essence is for sale

Don't pay the price
You'll pay it twice
Once with your soul
Then with your money

They tell you what you're meant to be
And rob you off your soul
They tell you who you're meant to be
If you believe - you're sold
They tell you what is sexy now
You struggle to conform
Start pandering to public taste
Another clone is born

They nip and tuck
Don't give a
First take your soul
Then hurt your body

Society is good at this
Don't say you've not been warned
Small children in school uniform
Get bullied to conform
Tomorrow's corporate citizens
Pre-programmed to consume
They're buying goods and services
In vain to fit the norm

Don't think it's smart
To play that part
Don't sell your soul
To march with their army

Don't listen when you hear them talk
They're trying to convey
An image of humanity
That's spiritual decay
Escape through numbing of the mind
The threatening curse of "old"
By swallowing their evil bait
You're poured into their mould

They chide and cluck
Their small-talk sucks
Don't lose your self
To be their dummy

Don't pay the price
You'll pay it twice
First with your soul
Then with your money

Don't pay the price
You'll pay it twice
First with your soul
Then with your money
