It's none of my business
But if I
may
Remind you of the time
When you did
something you knew was wrong
It wasn't called
a crime
And I'm not saying that you should
give
A sucker an even break
I'm talking
about the time
That you were cruel for
cruelty's sake
I'm talking about the
time
That you were cruel for cruelty's
sake
How you gonna pay for
How you gonna
pay for
How you gonna pay for the sin?
How
you gonna pay for
How you gonna pay for
How
you gonna pay for the sin?
Hah?
Maybe you
went and stuck your key
In somebody else's
door
Maybe you went and helped yourself
To
something that wasn't yours
Maybe you simply
criticized
Someone you hardly knew
You
ruined part of their life for them
Part of
your own life, too
How you gonna pay
for
How you gonna pay for
How you gonna pay
for the sin?
How you gonna pay for
How you
gonna pay for
How you gonna pay for it
then?
If and when you feel an ill
wind
Don't be too surprised
Remember when
you should have
Picked on somebody your own
size
How you gonna pay for
How you gonna
pay for
How you gonna pay for the sin?
How
you gonna pay for
How you gonna pay for
How
you gonna pay for the sin?
How am I gonna pay
for
How am I gonna pay for
How am I gonna
pay for the sin?
