Pleasure, little treasure
Everybody's looking for a reason to live
if you're looking for a reason
I've a reason to give
Pleasure, little treasure
Everybody's looking for a new sensation
Everybody's talking about the state of the nation
Everybody's searching for a promised land
Everybody's failing to understand
Pleasure, little treasure
Everybody's looking for a reason to live
if you're looking for a reason
I've a reason to give
Pleasure, little treasure
Everybody's looking for someone to follow
Finding the whole thing hard to swallow
Everybody's looking for a reason to live
if you're looking for a reason I've a reason to give
Pleasure, little treasure
Maternity frocks and paternity suits
If that's what you want
They're waiting for you
Everybody needs some reason or other
You'll find a reason when you discover
Pleasure, little treasure
Everybody's looking for a reason to live
if you're looking for a reason
I've a reason to give
Pleasure, little treasure
Pleasure, little treasure
Pleasure, little treasure
Pleasure, little treasure
Pleasure Little Treasure
Pleasure Little Treasure stands as a defining track from Depeche Mode's 1987 album, Music For The Masses. Released during a period of significant commercial expansion for the British electronic group, the song captures the band's signature blend of dark synth-pop and driving industrial rhythms. The recording showcases the group's ability to balance melancholic themes with an upbeat, danceable tempo, a hallmark of their mid-to-late 1980s output. As part of an album that marked a shift toward a more aggressive sound, the track reinforces the band's status as pioneers of electronic music. Its enduring presence in their discography highlights the lasting appeal of their production style and songwriting during this influential era.
