American Idolatry by Misery Index Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2008

Burn, burn, Hollywood, burn

Fetishized model-whores
Images, airbrushed hardcore
Harlots, Hiltons
Egotistic, wanton wifes
Plastic, paramours
Skank pawns of culture war
Fake tits, facelifts
Three hundred years of "Enlightenment" comes to this?

Voltaire is laughing
Rousseau is puking
The joke is on us all

Their faces dissolve into thin air
They are trite and listless
They are empty vessels
They are ink and pixels
Yet they walk the earth as Gods
Practitioner professionals of sloth, so fucking worthless
This worshiped parasite-celeprosy
Let's start the fire
And melt those plastic faces into dust

Carrion of Leisure-class fueled waste
This narcissistic venerated filth
The icons of a clueless populace
The idols of a nation in decline
