Measure for Pleasure

Come on now measure, oh for pleasure Give me quantity the whole night through I need you to measure, measure for pleasure Don't care what you're doing, just want you to do And if you measure, you measure for pleasure Then I'll promise to say you did it so well Don't want no masterpiece, no manifesto Aspiring to excellence is such a waste of your days But now let me tell you - I have to confess, though Your pointless toil could never be replaced Because I'll measure, you rest easy, I'll measure What you did and say you did it so well We got our numbers racket, our clever little scheme Creative dissenters can take a seat under the bus We're patriotically bureaucratic and there's no why in team Child, I tell you: nobody can jump through hoops like us It's just like the army except instead of killing I don't even have to, do I? 'Cause you know exactly what I'm going to say Come on now measure, oh for pleasure Give me quantity the whole night through I need you to measure, measure for pleasure Don't care what you're doing, just want you to do And if you measure, you measure for pleasure Then I'll promise to say you did it so well
