it's better you know now
what I thought was happiness was only part-time bliss
you can take a bow
it was all just one big night out on the town
riding in your limousine
we turned right and I say wrong which brings us to a stop
as the light is changing

Oh my meters running so I got to go now

Its the pleasure principle oh oh ohhhhh
Its the principle of pleasure
Oh ohhh
its the pleasure principle oh oh -oh oh

Its true you want to build your life of guarantees
hey take a ride in a big yellow taxi
I'm not here to feed your insecurities
I wanted you to love me
this has become an all too familiar scene
its not the first time I paid the fare
where'd you get the idea of material possession?
thank you for the ride nowhere

And oh my meters running so I've really got to go
Its the pleasure principle  oh ohhh

I know- what you mean to me
baby this is nowhere
you know- what became between you and me human differential
sa dat dit dit baby
It's the principle of pleasure
oh ohhh
its the pleasure principle oh ohhh

You might say that I'm no good
I wouldn't trust your looks baby if I could
I got so many things I wanna do, before I'm through
hey da dit da dit dat baby

its the pleasure principle

Baby you can't hold me down
baby you can't hold me down
after all the lovin' we've been through
and after all you've put me through
yeah hey yeah
love me, hey yeah
its the pleasure principle of love
yeah yeah yeah yeah
