I'll start - listened to this song for many years before I realized it was a love letter to heroin at least on some level

Not really celebrating vices of society, but demonizing.


This is a reflection on heroin addiction.

How could I forget this one - the credo

Brothers and sisters
Friends of the revolution
Let me tell ya somethin'

In the beginning, there was pleasure
And it was good
And four bars and seven drinks ago
In order to form a more perfect Las Vegas
We, the weird, mushroom-gobbling army of insanity
With one nation under Deano
Do solemnly pledge
(Let me tell ya--take the pledge)

I, I pledge allegiance
To Tom Jones
Drinking and gambling
To fornication
Hallucination
To visit the holy city at least once a year
Oh, lead us not to Wayne Newton
And deliver us from Michael Bolton!

(Say it after me now, say)
I, Pleasurebaron
Do solemnly swear
To go forth
Skip work
Sleep late
And make pleasure on the planet
Yeah, I'm a Pleasurebaron
Let the drinking begin!
