Smile And Burn - Assholes on Parade

Reinvent the new
Combine the old and new
Push back till we care
For songs on the edge of despair

Make me want it
Make me love it
Make me want it all

Bring the art back into business
Round the edges, kill the flaws
Buy plastic, sell the witness
Crave a different kind of buzz

They promise satisfaction
And you come back for more
Alternate for perfection
Outer peace but inner war

Strain self tolerance
Fault lines will condescend


Make me want it
Make me love it
Make me want it all

I don't want it
I don't love it
I don't want it all

Bring the art back into business
The whore, the smug, the industry
Bring the art back into business
Art's in pop culture in me

We are the art department
We are the art department

The same vocabulary
And you come back for more
Eternal temporizer
But still aiming for a "No"

I won't compromise
I will never compromise

Make me want it
Make me love it
Make me want it all

I don't want it
I don't love it
I don't want it all

Reinvent the new
