egoism -
-
- The ethical doctrine that morality has its foundations in self-interest.
- The ethical belief that self-interest is the just and proper motive for all human conduct.
- Excessive preoccupation with one's own well-being and interests, usually accompanied by an inflated sense of self-importance.
- Egotism; conceit.
Always looking in a mirror and preening
Your vanity is beyond any compare
Always your job, your hobbies, your everything
Your interest in others is rare
No sacrifice is too great, no price too dear
As long as it feeds your love of self
Your egoism is your church and worship
One day you will realise it is so not good for your health.
Your vanity is beyond any compare
Always your job, your hobbies, your everything
Your interest in others is rare
No sacrifice is too great, no price too dear
As long as it feeds your love of self
Your egoism is your church and worship
One day you will realise it is so not good for your health.
