Better By The Pound Lyrics By Funkadelic

    pleasure’s the motivation for the human race
    everything starts and ends with sex and appeal
    feeling good is the bait satan uses to fish for you and me
    comfort is the poison when it’s the spirit he wants to kill

    there’s a tidal wave of mysticism
    surging through our jetaged generation
    it’s all designed to take us to the sky

    there’s such a need for us to feel nice and it’s getting better
    we got to have it more than we ought to
    the preacher keeps promisin’ satisfaction
    the ladies keep giving up the gratifaction
    you know what i’m feeling better by the pound

    there’s a tidal wave of mysticism
    surging through our jetaged generation
    it’s all designed to take us to the sky

    you know what i’m feeling better by the pound
    i’m feeling better by the pound

    joyful is the hocus pocus that’s haunting all mankind
    said he couldn’t be what he needs to be you see
    he and only he is free
    well he who is truly free
    say free from the need to be free

    there’s a tidal wave of mysticism
    surging through our jetaged generation
    it’s all designed to take us to the sky
