Seven Deadly Sins
Ever felt that youve been lied
And somehow you just cant provide the proof
Ever felt youre cast aside
And sheltered from the universal truth
Ever find when trouble calls youre first in line
And stick your finger in
Everybodys talking bout 7 deadly sins
Number one says drop the gun
Theres nothing out there thats worth dying for
And number two thats me and you
Im green inside and jealous to the core
Number three fidelity Ive lost the path
And Id better start again
This things got a strange mystique
The 7 deadly sins
This things got the whole world beat
7 deadly sins
I can hear them calling out
I can hear them screaming out
Blood is sweet like a deep red river
And where it goes I dont know
You make me sweat
And you make me shiver
Where it goes I dont know
If youve got sticky fingers
You got dreams that linger running through your brain
Well vanitys the flying v
Desire is the one who gets the blame
If youre looking for a goldmine
When all around you seems be tin
Im not superstitious bout the 7 deadly sins
Everybodys calling out 7 deadly sins
Everybodys dreamin bout 7 deadly sins

Code Of Silence
Deep in the night
I can hear you calling my name
How can I try to help you woman
If you go on hiding your pain
Baby, baby, the tears on your pillow are real
You cant go on pretending to me
When I see the pain that you feel
A code of silence, is a dreadful thing
It can make you feel harder
It can keep you hanging on a string
Here in the darkness
When I hear you calling my name
A code of silence is a deadly game
Its a deadly game (whats that you say)
Its a deadly game (speak to me now)
Its a deadly game (deadly game)
Lost in your dreams
Trouble on your face in the pale moonlight
Nowhere to run youve got to let me know
Where you are standing tonight
Baby baby baby
I know that youre hurting inside
Open your heart
I know that we can make it
If you talk to me now
A code of silence, is a deadly thing
It can make you feel harder
It can keep you hanging on a string
Here in the darkness
When I hear you calling my name
A code of silence is a deadly game
Its a deadly game (whats that you say)
Its a deadly game (speak to me now)
Its a deadly game (deadly game).....

Seven
Full of greed you sell your soul
Full of pride a heavy load
You eat yourself gluttony
Resent yourself you envy me
Everything turns into wrath
You lust yourself to death
Deep fears that drive us
Hid beneath disguises
Judge the world within
Forgive my deadly sins
Procrastination always giving up
Something better comes to interrupt
Cast your verdict down to me
Spare me your bleeding sympathy
Only care how you appear
Clearly see you cant see clear
Deep fears that drive us
Hid beneath disguises
Judge the world within
Forgive my deadly sins
Greed, gluttony, pride, envy, wrath, sloth, death, deadly seven
Seven deadly sins of mine
On every street
And corner lie
These seven deadly sins of mine

Love Deadly Love
A greyhound bus weaves its way across town
Im sitting here thinking
Never thought I could be brought down
And low yes Im sinking
* bet on a wild one, I got stitched
Caught up in a fight
I was dreaming, dreaming, oh I saw you last night
(I got a) 4 by 8 on rikers yard
8 to 15 Im doin hard
For you and your lover
Shot through the head
Air conditioning lead
The honeymoon was over
With the telephone bill
Yes youve been tumbled
With your fingers in the till
The chelsea hotel with a private line
Now its payback time
** sha la la la I cant let you go
Its not over till its over, no
Sha la la la I cant set you free
Oh no cant let go
cause I put you right above
Love deadly love
Love deadly love
Through the shadows of my backyard
Now brother Im leaving a calling card
This mission tonight
Feels so right mr. d.o.a.
Some they can take it and some lie down
Some just wear that thorny crown
Like a halo round the head
Oh now youre better off dead
** repeat
[instrumental]
** repeat
Theres a visit and one phone call
And sometimes a stroll
If Im straight in five years
Maybe remission or parole
* repeat
Five card stud thats your game
Ill cut stack and lose its all the same
You could never say no never say no no no no
Love deadly love, love deadly love
Love deadly love, love deadly love
Love deadly love, love deadly love

You like to advertise your interest in success
But you dont know on the score of who youre trying to impress

Confessing Sins
when guilt is full
there comes a time when we think of
the possibility of confessing our sins,
the usual sins of omissions
more than our sins of commissions,
to a friend perhaps, but you doubt
for he has more sins than you have
and it might as well end
on the reverse, you the listening tree
and he the barking dog,
or perhaps to a religious group but
you shy away because of their number
and you might as well at the end be the
subject of their gossip
in town for a week or so,
and so you become a catholic again
on a Sunday before your parish priest
you kneel down and confess your sins,
and your dismay the priest says,
'
my son these are not sins anymore
under the new doctrines
with an ending, don't worry my boy
you'll do penance just the same
say three our fathers and three hail Mary's
and don't come back
your sins are the same as mine'
what comfort is this, when sins are confessed
to a person on the same misery and guilt as we are.

Strange Lover
Baby baby baby dont hurry
Youve got your finger on me
Dont let go, no no no
I know you love it
Its running through my veins
You drink me dry
You take so much of me
And when you touch me
I see the magic in your eyes
And I cant move (Im going under)
One kiss, I know, that Im with you
Forever
Baby baby dont make me worry
You only live for the night
Its not right, no no no
But in the morning
You seem to disappear
Here come the night
You seem to reappear
Is this a warning?
Ive got a feeling youre not
Telling me the truth (you cast no shadow)
One kiss, I know, that Im with you
Forever
Strange lover, pale as the moon
Youve no shadow, no face in the mirror
No complection, no reflection
Baby baby baby youre freezing
You send a shiver through me
Im so cold, no no no
The day is dawning
Were moving underground
I must go with you
I start to realise
Your touch is deadly
I wanna look away
But I cant look away
Im in your power and Im lost

Deadly
I often wish that I could fly
Up into a darkening sky
But something stops my deadly flight
A hidden voice a shining light
'What makes you want to take your life
With a cold and ruthless knife? '
The voice it asks me time and time
'I wish to wash away my crime.'
That is what I wish to say
But the words won't come my way
So I write them in a book
And hide it so no one can look
On the pages are my dreams
My plots, my plans, my deadly schemes
Deadly pleasure, deadly pain
Deadly sun and deadly rain
Poisoned food, corupted drink
Standing on the very brink
And when my soul if finally freed
Do not follow my deadly lead

Everybodys Alone
If youre looking for me
Youll find me resting in the shade
Of the mountains and trees
Beneath the cool summer breeze
And I dont mind if you stay
Everybodys alone
Everybodys alone
People talking to me
Someone saying that Im not the same
Thats not so easy to be
But when Ill learn to be free
I wonder if Ill miss the pain
Everybodys alone
Everybodys alone
All I want you to know
Is that I love you so much
I can hardly stand it
When everybodys alone
Everybodys alone
Everybodys alone
Everybodys alone

Happpy Heretic
The seven deadly sins must be.
Reserved for Cardinals and such
who are completely out of touch
with everyday reality
For they believe apparently.
That greed is asking far too much
but gluttony can be a crutch
for those who live in misery
And seeming sloth could be M.E.
Rendered blind by their own pride,
They raise their voice in righteous wrath.
I think perhaps they envy me
because I do not have to hide
my sins. I’m free to choose my path.

Everybodys Girl
Well, whod have believed this seasoned connoisseur lady-killer
Like me
Would get hurt by a girl like you
And they got names for dirty little girls like you, honey
It aint nice no, but they call you everybodys girl
And they say, here she comes, here she comes, here she comes
And they say, here she comes, here she comes, here she comes
There goes everybodys girl
Everybodys girl, everybodys girl, everybodys girl
You might say I was blind for a while
I fell asleep at the driving wheel
You sure woke me up in a hurry, honey
And I cant blame anyone but me I know
Its my fault for falling for everybodys girl
And they say, hes the one, hes the one, hes the one
And they say, hes the one, hes the one, hes the one
He got screwed by everybodys girl
Everybodys girl, everybodys girl, everybodys girl
You got no apparent sensitivity
Youre cut deep with self-destructivity
Your minds made up, youre heading for the day
When youll shake and your heart breaks
Its gonna come ohoh
Everybodys girl, everybodys girl
Everybodys girl, everybodys girl
Everybodys girl , you know the times gonna come
Everybodys girl, you cant keep doing this forever
Everybodys girl, youre not gonna get another chance
Everybodys girl, youre gonna get it!

Our Sins
Our sins are leading us away from the truth!
Our sins are causing all the troubles in this world,
Our sins are bringing about all these wars around us,
Our sins have torn us apart from love! !
And, we now hate each other in this world.
Glabal warming! !
And, it is all because of our sins;
Our sins have really destroyed everything around us.
Just watch the news!
Just listen to your neihbour!
Just look around you!
Just see how much hatred is being expressed among us!
Our sins have torn us apart from love.
Scenes, sins!
Of the scenes of life full of many troubles;
All in the name of our sins.
The Creator, whose Original Name is Yahweh,
Created us all with true love in many colours;
But, our sins have led us to hate each other on this earth.
Famine, disaster, sickness, accident, drought!
And all the global warming seen around us;
Are all caused by our sins because,
We failed to follow the Laws of Yahweh.

Chelsea Girl
And now the sound of time is getting fast
Its getting late
Dont know if I can take much more
The way you talk I often wondered
If I heard the words somewhere
Someplace before
I got so nervous when I called
And found that lately
You had gone and changed your name
But Ive got something on my mind
I want you here
I want you now
You better explain
Is it true youre running round
Now is it true theyre calling you
The chelsea girl
Is it true youre running round
Now is it true theyre calling you
The chelsea girl
Your best friend never calls you up
But you dont mind
cause lately things are all the same
Aint it strange how peope always seem
To know your face
But just dont know your name
Well I dont care theres no-one there
That even turn around and say get out of this place
Last night I saw a shooting star
When morning comes
She hides away
A real disgrace
Is it true youre running round
Now is it true theyre calling you
The chelsea girl
Is it true youre running round
Now is it true theyre calling you
The chelsea girl
Oh chelsea girl
You got me caught up in a whirl
I want you here now chelsea girl

Dont You Worry bout A Thing
(s. wonder)
Everybodys got a thing
But some dont know how to handle it
Always reachin out in vain
Just taking the things not worth havin
Chorus:
But dont you worry bout a thing
Dont you worry bout a thing (dont you worry, baby)
cause Ill be standing on the side when you check it out
They say your style of lifes a drag
And that you must go other places
Just dont you feel too bad
When you get fooled by smiling faces
Chorus
When you get off your trip
Dont you worry bout a thing
Dont you worry bout a thing
Chorus
Everybody needs a change
A chance to check out the new
Youre the only one who see
The changes you take yourself through
Dont you worry bout a thing
Dont you worry bout a thing (sweet baby)
cause Ill be standin in the wings when you check it out
Dont you worry bout a thing
Dont you worry bout a thing
Dont worry, dont worry, dont worry cause Ill be right here waitin for you baby

When Your Sins Come Home to Roost
When you fear the barber’s mirror when you go to get a crop,
Or in sorrow every morning comb your hair across the top:
When you titivate and do the little things you never used—
It is close upon the season when your sins come home to roost.
Many were the sins of others and you never were to blame,
Some were sins you shared in common—you must suffer all the same;
Some were sins of wasted hours with the wine cup or a mate,
But you cannot share the burden—and they come in duplicate.
Oh! you’ll find the fowls are heavy and their claws are sharp and deep—
They will bow your head in working, they will jerk you from your sleep,
And so many hands are eager just to give your back a boost
On the road to wreck and ruin when your sins come home to roost.
But you don’t let on they’re roosting and you take some only way,
And you never whine or guzzle and you neither curse nor pray;
You will never for an instant let your lower lip be loosed—
But you stand up like a soldier when your sins come home to roost!
And you’ll find them growing lighter till you find room for a few
Of the sins of other mortals who have weaker souls than you:
Then you’ll smile, and not too sadly, at old sins reintroduced—
And you’ll be a man in many when your sins come home to roost.
