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, drugs
Out of the repression of pleasure
Something logically came into the light
Something much graver than sex, drugs
Perversion could only entail regression
Of a civilisation that
Would avoid mastering anxiety
That would distort the truth, corrupt behaviour
