Icons of Filth

Self Styled Superiority

Man’s got the capability

For the ultimate stupidity

Man can conquer all

Man can destroy it all

Man is so small, yet man can do it all

Man is obsessed with power & things that’ll give him

power

Over all fellow beings to use

If ever he feels threatened or if he feels he's coming

second

Man sits proudly on top of the pile

Proudly on to of the stockpile

All else rots

Away

meanwhile.... Men, women, children & animals get

crushed in his systems

machinery

Labeled with inferiority

Mans biggest mistake is his self-styled superiority

Man’s got the capability for the ultimate stupidity

Man can conquer all

Man can destroy it all

Man is so small, yet man can do it all

Man the most intelligent of all beings?

Yet man is so ignorant to all others feelings

Insensitive, incompetent, uncaring man

Swallows up all others cultures

Enemy of the earth with ‘progress’

Homo sapiens suppress

Blow over cities

So great an achievement

From which nothing can be achieved

Setting aside destruction & radioactive bodies of all

types, colours & creeds

This is the food on which progress feeds

But surely this ain’t progress

It’s the regress of mans self-styled superiority

Man’s got the capability for the ultimate stupidity

Man can conquer all

Man can destroy it all

Man is so small, yet man can do it all

Man has learnt to.... Destroy,

murder, rob, hate, con, waste & torture.... & all

legally,

then man has learnt nothing
