Decadence Of Dignity Lyrics
When profit shows his face
our sense of clarity is washed away.
Spinning round the axle of greed,
don't let the economy stagnate
for it's our creed.
I turn my head away in shame
as you crave for more,
selling out what is not yours to sell.
We're the pimps of it all.
Living in the decadence of our dignity.
When silver waves his hand,
we kneel so eagerly.
Living in the decadence of our dignity.
Where man will take command
we'll sail astray in greed.
Come into my booth and trade.
What about the exclusive bargain
for the day?
I can satisfy all your needs.
Sell your future and you will profit today,
do your deeds.
our sense of clarity is washed away.
Spinning round the axle of greed,
don't let the economy stagnate

selling out what is not yours to sell.
We're the pimps of it all.

we kneel so eagerly.
Living in the decadence of our dignity.

we'll sail astray in greed.
What about the exclusive bargain

This song is amazing, why the hell are there no comments?
It seems like a kind of trite political song, but the music and vocals are still both amazing.
I think they are saying that all men driven by greed will become endlessly driven by it, with no care for anyone else.

"When silver waves his hand, we kneel so eagerly."

And evidently we will all bow to money if there is enough of it.

Living in the decadence of our dignity, I always read that as we aren't rich materially, but we are rich in dignity. So as "YOU crave for more" "I turn my head in shame" and thus I am living with dignity. Though reading through the lyrics maybe that's not the correct interpretation. Any thoughts?
