about

The inhabitants of "Destruction" tell what sweet innocent folks they are.

lyrics

MAD INHABITANTS
(Noel Coward sing/speak):
We are the mad inhabitants of the City of Destruction,
We lie and cheat and we're far from sweet
and we're experts in corruption.
We are the bad inhabitants of a strange society,
and we're very glad to be.
  (SING):
Yeah the great unwashed the great unshaved
the very terribly behaved,
we wouldn't change for all the world
It's a pleasure just to be depraved.

We are the mad practitioners of crime beyond detection,
each ugly vice is twice as nice
when practiced to perfection.
We thrive on human weakness of each and every kind,
and in our dirty little way, we're very glad to find.

No room for good of any kind,
but lots of muck to blow your mind,
we always will behave like swine,
we're hot for crime on borrowed time.
HYPOCRISY
My name is HYPOCRISY, Don't you see yourself in me?
CITIZENS
 He's Hypocrisee-ee yeah.
LIBERALITY
My name is LIBERATLITY, I'm free with everything you see.
CITIZENS
Liberalitee-ee yeah.
PLIABILITY
My name is PLIABILITY, No-one's quite as bent as me.
CITIZENS
We are the mad inhabitants of the City of Destruction,
We lie and cheat and we're far from sweet
and we're experts in corruption.
We are the bad inhabitants of a strange society,
and we're very glad to be.

Yeah the great unwashed the great unshaved
the very terribly behaved,
we wouldn't change for all the world
It's a pleasure just to be depraved.
