[Verse 1]
Running after recognition
Instant gratification
Silky cradle of illusion
Immediate satisfaction
(Pleasure, pleasure, why)
I want to build a castle
(Pleasure, pleasure, why)
It's too much of a hassle

[Chorus]
Desperate polemic
To feel more happy

[Verse 2]
It's a funny dictatorship
The one by which one must have
Pleasure, pleasure all of the time
In looking for this for real life
(Pleasure, pleasure, why)
Try to make it work in disguise
(Pleasure, pleasure, why)
Doesn't exist, I realize

[Verse 3]
His false and artificial means
(Pleasure, pleasure, why)
Isn't my reality
(Pleasure, pleasure, why)
Enforces a state of ennui
[Chorus]
Desperate polemic
To feel more happy

[Outro]
Their hole is bottomless
Our freedom is endless
You may lie among your
Eternal amusement
