Lyrics
A NEW AGE I HOPE'S BEGUN, PREJUDICE NOW ON THE RUN
YET THERE'S ONE BREED MOST STILL HATE,
IT'S BECAUSE THEIR GIFT'S INNATE
THEY HAVE IT ALL, THEY GET EACH BREAK,
BUT EVERY ONE'S A FAKE
PRETTY PEOPLE SIMPLY VILE, KNOW JUST HOW TO USE A SMILE
PRETTY PEOPLE LIKED BY ALL, THEY'D BE FIRST AGAINST MY WALL
EXCUSED ALL BY ALL OF US, SADLY 'TWAS FOREVER THUS
CAST AS AD MEN'S BOURGEOISIE, THEY'RE WHAT WE'D ALL RATHER BE
THEY HAVE WHAT SELLS, SO TALL AND THIN
AND WE'RE ALL TAKEN IN
PRETTY PEOPLE ALWAYS COOL, LIFE WAS EASY ALL THRO' SCHOOL
PRETTY PEOPLE FILL OUR SCREENS, SO MUCH LESS THAN WHAT THEY SEEM
TIME WITH THEM IS SO MISSPENT, THEIR ROLE'S JUST TO ORNAMENT
ALWAYS GETTING ALL THE LUCK, PRETTY PEOPLE, PRETTY PEOPLE,
PRETTY PEOPLE SUCK!!
