Instant Pleasure

from Instant Pleasure by Seth Swirsky

lyrics

All I want is somebody to love me
And give me sex whenever I want it
All I ask for is instant pleasure
Instant pleasure, instant pleasure

I sit in traffic for what seems like an eternity
And I think "Is this where I really want to be?"
There must be some way I can get
Instant pleasure, instant pleasure

All I want to do is paint
But I hear the pay ain't great
Think I'll do it anyway

I go to Starbucks and hope some girl notices me
Try to sit cool, that's not really cool
All I want is instant pleasure
Instant pleasure, instant pleasure
Rock on

Had a dream that I won the lottery
Everyone wanted to be my friend
Why'd that stupid dream have to end?

All I want is somebody to love me
And give me sex whenever I want it
All I ask for is instant pleasure
Instant pleasure, instant pleasure
Instant pleasure, instant pleasure
Instant pleasure

(All I want is)
(Someone to love me)


Notes on song:
I was switching tv channels with a clicker and scrolling on the internet with the other and the thought occurred to me how I had a need to be pleased immediately— how I needed ‘instant pleasure’. Those words popped into my head, I picked up my guitar and wrote the entire song in 10 minutes.
