Lyrics

It Was a Pleasure

Let's get through this shit I know you'd like that too The stuff that undermines The best of me and you It was a pleasure to meet you You slapped me right on the back Just a pleasure to meet you You got it almost exact Make no discussion now Make no bad dreams now Make no reason now Make no excuses now If I knock it all back Just like you say I do Would it confirm the suspect That suspicion will do? It was a pleasure to meet you You slapped me right on the back Just a pleasure to meet you You got it almost exact Make no discussion now (No discussion) Make no illusion now (No illusion) Make no dilusion now (No dilusions) Make no excuses now (No excuses) All hands on deck All Make no discussion now (No discussion) Make no illusion now (No illusion) Make no dilusion now (No dilusions) Make no excuses now (No excuses) Let's get rid of this shit I know you'd like that too The stuff that undermines The best of me and you Failure to do so will result in the failure Failure to do so will result in the failure
