"Excursions Into "Oh, A-Oh"" lyrics - STEREOLAB

Riding after recognition
Instant gratification
Silky cradle of illusion

Immediate satisfaction (pleasure, pleasure, wah)
I want to build a castle (pleasure, pleasure, wah)
It's too much of a hassle

Desperate polemic
To feel more happy

It's a funny dictatorship
The one by which one must have pleasure
Pleasure, pleasure all of the time

In looking for this in real life (pleasure, pleasure, wah)
Try to make it work in disguise (pleasure, pleasure, wah)
Doesn't exist, I realize

His false and artificial means (pleasure, pleasure, wah)
Isn't my reality (pleasure, pleasure, wah)
Enforces a state of ennui

Desperate polemic
To feel more complete

Their hole is bottomless
Our freedom is endless
Peeling like an onion
Until nothing is left
