And don’t tell me ‘bout the sins of man
Am G C
I’ve felt the sting of God’s right hand
I find him after school in bed
And don’t know if he’s drunk or dead
A slow but steady breath means
Live to wreck another day
It’s terrible to cross my mind
That I should do him in this time
And I could find a better life
Become a burden on the state
