THE DESDEMONAS - Ruined Velvet Lyrics

Oh ruined velvet, what have you done?
What once was charming is now churned out for lump sums
To be someone now weighs a tonne
All so you could bask under a glorious sun

Oh ruined velvet, purpose unknown
What importance do you hold and you say I don't know
And your death will come at a toll
And its name is quality control

I ask, I plead
Who ruined velvet?
You ruin velvet
Your collapse is my belief
Who ruined velvet?
You ruin velvet

Oh ruined velvet, contribute no more
May the stones you throw cleanse my soul
The soles of your shoes you don't own
In a corporate world you don't know

I ask, I plead
Who ruined velvet?
You ruin velvet
Your collapse is my belief
Who ruined velvet?
You ruin velvet

Oh ruined velvet, politically so clean
You cut the blood supply to the minds of so many
And they'll unwind and see the sight of you so clear
And see you're a poser from nowhere near here

I ask, I plead
Who ruined velvet?
You ruin velvet
Your collapse is my belief
Who ruined velvet?
You ruin velvet
