Stereolab - Perversion lyrics
[Stereolab - Perversion lyrics]
In our Christian society
There's something wrong with having pleasure
Pleasure more precisely is called sin
Therefore our well thinking citizens
Have decided it was best to hide
Deny pleasures such as sex and drugs
Out of the repression of pleasure
Something logically take into the light
Something much graver than sex, drugs
Perversion could only entail regression
Of a civilization that would
Avoid mastering anxiety
That would disrupt the truth
Corrupt behaviour
