The Beautifully Ugly


Turn the lights on!
Woosh! Pow! Wow!
If what looks good
Isn’t always good
Then why does it feel so damned good?
Turn the lights on!
It’s The Beautifully Ugly!
Arriving at the gates and sprawling hills of  The Willard Mansion
Tucked deep within another community of VIPS and velvet ropes
High Volt and High Watt, the lights are bright tonight
Even more luminous than the glare of headlights
As they pull into the circular drive
One by one, the spectacular modern day carriages arrive
Containing an exclusive selection in the hundreds of anointed
Spectacular reflections igniting in abundance
Woosh!  Pow! Wow! The lights are bright tonight
So bright that none can see
Woosh! Pow! Wow!  The lights are bright tonight
So vague their reflections as their spectacular riddles begin
With their carefully calculated glee and underhanded schemes
Creepy gentlemen and shady ladies armored with designer labels and deceptive gazes
With their freshly painted joker faces and remnants of plastic traces
Empty shells where the soulless dwells
Sprinkles of diamonds and things that shine
To distract the eye from the heartless swine
It's The Beautifully Ugly
The Hip Nice Nasty
Ascending up the steps into the grand entrance of something or a whole lot of nothing.
Ready willing and able
To do any and everything for that big grand entrance of that something or nothing. 
A buffet awaits.
A large buffet to feed upon the slop of their superiority complex.
The games await
Games to play God.
Clickety Clack,  Pickety Pat
Their dirty hands and dirty little feet
Clickety Clack,  Pickety Pat
Part time saviors and full time deceit
Clickety Clack,  Pickety Pat
Smiling faces and fang like teeth
Clickety Clack,  Pickety Pat
Hate abundant but missing it’s sheets.........................
