"Ineffectual Goad" lyrics - DOOM

DOOM
"Ineffectual Goad"

Predictable narrowed view with age
Brown-nosed and corporate caged
Airbrush vanity for adoring fans
Propping up all that is bland
No shock or offense just ridicule ideas
Detracting from insecure fears

Bigoted corporate whore
Fascistic fetish bore

Misplaced white superiority delusion
Pathetic fascist-flirtation confusion
Hidden behind symbols and codes
Boring bigot, ineffectual goads
Bathe in glory of self-applause
And a "nihilistic" get out clause

Bigoted corporate whore
Fascistic fetish bore

Is ethical thought now obsolete?
Throw values away to bend the rules
So far apart, apart from the crowd
Swallowed up by the mindless mob
Eternal struggle for absolute freedom
The nihilist battle, a fight against what?

'Esoteric' privilege misconception
Narcissist importance invention
Belittle, patronize, condescend
Sad, pathetic to the end
Bathe in glory of self-applause
And a "nihilistic" get out clause

Bigoted corporate whore
Fascistic fetish bore
