Pleasure and Pain

Up and at 'em start the day, I've got a piano to play
Sit right down, gather my thoughts, Hurry now before they're all lost
What happened the night before, you don't like me anymore
But I don't mind anyway, because today's a brand new day

You don't have to bark to bite, you don't have to swing to fight
I'll take you down all with my mind
And leave the pieces for them to find
Don't you underestimate all my powers for they're great
And I am not afraid to use, how much have you got to lose?
How much have you got to lose?

I never got high on life, I had to find other ways
Before the time that I made five, already knew inside my brain
That if you want to feel alive, you got to have both pleasure and pain

Let's Go!

What is wrong and what is right, what gets you to sleep at night
You're preaching this but you practice that
Pat yourself right on the back
You act like you don't want the prize
But you've got dollars in your eyes
At least I'm honest with myself, ain't trying to please nobody else
Ain't trying to please nobody else

I never got high on life, I had to find other ways
Before the time that I made five, already knew inside my brain
That if you want to feel alive, you got to have both pleasure and pain

And if our paths happen to cross anytime soon
Watch me walk the other way
Just like the old days we've got nothing left to say
Watch me walk the other way, watch me walk away today
I've got a ticket for a train, a one way to pleasure and pain
