I've embraced a new philosophy, that sets free
The shame we're taught to feel I've now released
It's not for others to define
Their narrow burdens are not mine
Or their hypocritical beliefs, they've ceased
The moral crime
Would be to fall in line
There are countless pleasures to pursue, pursue
Yet the years we're given are too few, too few
Shrug off doubt, step up, and seize this day, this day
And take it in before it slips away, away
Where instinct and imagination goes, who knows
But where it leads, I'm sure to follow close
The sex, the arts, the sights and sounds
Profane to sacred, all that surrounds
I'll search all avenues till they're exposed, exposed
To guide this lust
In passion I will trust
There are countless pleasures to pursue, pursue
Yet the years we're given are too few, too few
Shrug off doubt, step up, and seize this day, this day
And take it in before it slips away, away
Simple content is not enough
The volume expelled must be turned up
It must be stressed
There are no fond regrets
There are countless pleasures to pursue, pursue
Yet the years we're given are too few, too few
Shrug off doubt, step up, and seize this day, this day
And take it in before it slips away, away...
