when i look back upon my life
it's always with a sense of shame
i 've always been the one to blame
for everything i long to do
no matter when or where or who
has one thing in common too
it's a, it's a, it's a
it's a sin, it's a sin
everything i've ever done
everything i ever do
everyplace i've ever been
everywhere i'm going to
it's a sin
at school they taught me how to be
so pure of thought
and word and deed
they didn't quite succeed
for everything i long to do
no matter when or where or who
has one thing in common too
