Lyrics:
The Kingdom of Konformity | 1/15/2010 | Song #410
Refrain:
In the kingdom of Konformity
Difference is deformity
In the Kingdom of Konformity
You better follow the majority
In the Kingdom of Konformity
Fashion is authority
In the Kingdom of Konformity
In the Kingdom of Konformity
Your sole purpose here on earth is
To look good upon the surface
No matter what you do
You should have done better
You might be light
But not light as a feather
Is your skin as tough as leather?
Buy this cream it will make it all better…
Not enough dough? At least put on a show
Go the same way everybody goes
Refrain:
Everyone else is being the self
That everyone else is trying to be
Everyone else is trying to be
Exactly like her majesty
That marvelous “she” we all want to be
Lives out her days so happily
In the center of the world known as the
Kingdom of Konformity
Refrain:
