PURE SELFISHNESS Songtext
von POiSON GiRL FRiEND

Why do we do what we do in the dark?
Why do the cows go "moo"
And the dogs all bark?
Why did the beasts go two by two
Into the ark?
Why do we walk with no conscious intention
So frequently here in the park?

Pure selfishness
Pure selfishness
Pure selfishness
Pure selfishness

Why do we sing what we sing in this song?
Why do the flowers grow weak and the weeds grow strong?
Why did Fay Wray love
The hideous monster King Kong?
Why do we suffer and smother each other?
The answer′s been clear all along


Pure selfishness
Pure selfishness
Pure selfishness
Pure selfishness

I used to wonder what makes the world go round
I no longer wonder what makes the world go round
Selfishness is all we need
What turns the world is greed
For love
For love

(For love) Why do we do what we do in the dark?
For love

Be like the animals
Be like the birds and the bees
Be like the blossom
That falls to the grass
From the trees
Push your excitement on up
To its selfish release
The whole of the law will be
Aleister Crowley's "Do What You Please"


Pure selfishness
Pure selfishness
Pure selfishness
Pure selfishness

Pure selfishness
Pure selfishness
Pure selfishness
Pure selfishness
