P&P

My name’s Pain

And my name’s Pleasure

We hate each other but we go hand in hand together

Total opposites even though we’re twin brothers

But you can’t have one of us without the other

My name’s Pleasure

And my name’s Pain

Two different sides of a coin that’s the same

You can’t have him without me in the frame

But you know what they say, no Pain no gain

So you wanna lose some weight and you bought a gym pass

It seemed like a great idea but that moment’s since passed

Coz now it’s Monday morning and your phone’s buzzing

So do us both a favour and just hit the snooze button

Look I know right now it seems like the worst fate

But try and remember why you signed up in the first place

You’ve got a goal that you want to achieve

So on the count of three take off these sheets and jump to your feet

Please, are you telling me you wanna leave this sweet bed

To frequent a place full of meat heads who leak sweat?

Just go tomorrow instead, forget it all for now

Everybody knows it’s only the thought that counts

I promise if you go, in one hour’s time

You’ll be wondering why you were putting up such a fight

Oh, I was right? I know it’s a sure thing

Coz have the same conversation every morning

So now you’re in a coffee shop, and opposite you spot

A hottie with a your favourite novel that she’s flicking through a copy of

Now obviously you want to try and find a way to talk

You’ve got the perfect opportunity so what you waiting for?

Er, maybe the fact that she may think that you’re crazy or

Some sort of maniac stalker who likes to break the law?

No normal dude chats to girls in broad day light

She’ll probably scream “Help! Someone save me from this strange guy!”

I think we both know that’s an exaggeration

Dismiss what this dude says it’s just in your imagination

Look she’s getting up to leave, you better start stepping fast

It’s not like anybody ever gets a Second Chance

This is never gonna work but then that’s nothing new

Oh she went for it? Lucky you, it’s probably just a fluke

I’m gonna leave but I’ll be back soon believe me

Coz the more you want something then the more you’re gonna see me

So you wanna write a new song, great let’s get it penned

Me and Creativity are the best of friends

You know that it’s your main passion and your calling in life

So just get started and I’m sure that you’ll be scrawling all night

But hasn’t it been a while since you wrote your last song?

Aren’t you worried that the talent you had is all gone?

Let me give you some excuses to leave it a little longer

Coz every day you do that makes me a bit stronger

But Pain, you need this guy to write raps

Oh really Pleasure please, explain to me why’s that?

Coz if you do succeed and convince him to quit

Then this whole tune and me and you will cease to exist

So in the interest of survival I suggest

That you show some more support, after all we’re only guests

Yes, I guess you’re right this time but I’ll be back

Waiting for you before you start your next track
