Nonsense prevails, modesty fails
Grace and virtue turn into stupidity
While the calender fades almost all barricades
to a pale compromise
And our leaders have feasts on the backsides of beasts
They still think they´re the gods of antiquity
If something you missed didn´t even exist
It was just an ideal
Is it such a surprise?
What shall we do, what shall we do
with all this useless beauty?
All this useless beauty
Elvis Costello, All this useless beauty (1996 & 2001)
