The Image Lyrics

Fall into confession so you can blame the trends
This time next week you'll be crucified
This season they'll beat you black and blue again
While you work it out for the hundredth time
Another suit to impress the girls
Another dress to undress
Another photo in the tabloid world
Does sex always sell?

Got the image from a cereal packet
Wrap it up again, Sell it to you and then
Kept the image from a cereal packet
Wrap it up again, Sell it to you and then
One film, one book, one song
Aesthetic version of what went wrong
Got the image from a cereal packet

Welcome to human culture where honesty is one step behind
If you see the light the next day you're blind
If it sells why not keep it? Sentimental value don't mean shit
To you it's trade it in for new

Got the image from a cereal packet
Wrap it up again, Sell it to you and then
Kept the image from a cereal packet
Wrap it up again, Sell it to you and then
One film, one book, one song
Aesthetic version of what went wrong
Got the image from a cereal packet

Another suit to impress the girls
Another dress to undress
Another photo in the tabloid world
Does sex always sell?

Got the image from a cereal packet
Wrap it up again, Sell it to you and then
Kept the image from a cereal packet
Wrap it up again, Sell it to you and then
One film, one book, one song
Aesthetic version of what went wrong
Got the image from a cereal packet
