Philosophy In The Bedroom

from Sade by Paragon Impure

/

lyrics

V - PHILOSOPHY IN THE BEDROOM

Libertines of all ages, of every sex, of every inclination: hearken!
Your passions, which the cold and dreary moralists tell you to fear
are no more than the means by which Nature seeks to exhort you to do Her work
Surrender to these passions and live freely!

Lewd women: emulate the lustful!
Submit yourself to pleasure's divine laws
Ignore all which contradict them!

Young virgins: pursue your fiery desires!
Throw off the restraints of your ridiculous religion
and spurn the precepts of your foolish parents
Yield to the laws of Nature which logic describes
and to the arms of willing lovers!

Lascivious men: be crafty in exploring the carnal arts!
Acknowledge no government save that of your desires
Acknowledge no limits save those of your imagination
Only in expanding the sphere of your tastes and whims
true pleasure you will find!

To all: let us realize that we have been cast into this woeful life
without our consent!
We have been assailed from the dawn of consciousness
with the sophistries of those who would gain from our confusion
If we would snatch a brief moment of pleasure
If we would plant an occasional rose along life's rocky path
We must sacrifice everything to the demands of our senses!

This is the lesson of the Bedroom Philosophers...


Based upon the foreword to La Philosophie dans le boudoir, 1795
