Insane Clown Posse - Confessions lyrics

They say it's hard to live down
A checkered past a man
With a criminal record often has
A tough time going straight
And when he decides to shift
Over to what the world
Calls "virtuous living, " often report
"They just won't forget
They won't let me forget" There's
One story we haven't
Told now it's the story of what happened to
A man who made the switch from the things
Of God to the things of the world

Father (hey) , I confess for doing it
I had a brain
(yes) , but life had to ruin it (gone)
Screw in it
(thoughts) , twist it, infect it (kill)
Dissect it (spit) , don't respect it (blood)
When you put me in a cage full of animals
(creepy)
Savages (killers) , and cold-blooded cannibals (monsters)
I can't help but become what's around me ()
Tried to run, but they found me, surround me
(shit) then they choke ya
(squeeze) , and provoke ya (tease)
Try to smoke ya, turn you into a joker
(he he he) i tried to rip it off
(wait) , but it's all I know (it's)
The only thing I ever knew
(me) , so what to do? Look at you
(never)
A bigot till your growin' old (evil)
Your growin' mold
With a soul that's freezin' cold (so?)
So I confess, but even if I'm all wrong
I'll be down with the clown
Till I'm dead and gone

Yes, I confess, but I really could care less
Father, I tried, but they wasn't on my side
Yes, I confess, but I really could care less
Father, I tried, but they wasn't on my side

I confess, this lady had a purse
(old) , so I took it (snatch)
I took it home, opened it up, and shook it
(look) she had papers
(comb) , lipstick and nail polish (shit)
Credit cards and about twenty-seven dollars
(change) i bought a fifth
(liquor) , drank it and laid there (stoned)
It seemed like I could
See the purse everywhere (bone)
On the light post
(look) , by this mail box (look)
I tried to run from it
(where?) , I ran a couple blocks (look)
But there it was, on the side walk
Waitin' for me (shit)
It tried to lure me to it
(stop) , I had to fuckin' do it (no)
I picked it up
() , and stuck my fuckin' hand in it (Agh)
It was full of rats
(Ah) , and they fuckin' bit it off (Why?)
Father I confess, I'm a criminal ()
But my worlds too subliminal, around me
Look at them, all the wicked masses
That's why I'm down with the
Clown till I'm ashes

Yes, I confess, but I really could care less
Father, I tried, but they wasn't on my side
Yes, I confess, but I really could care less
Father, I tried, but they wasn't on my side

It's like a circus, a wicked carnival
Everybody's got a ticket, they're lookin'
For the freaks, to point and gawk at
Look at yourself, the joke's on you, Jack

Yes, I confess, but I really could care less
(Down with the clown for life)
Father, I tried, but they wasn't on my side
(I confess to ya)
Yes, I confess, but I really could care less
(Down with the clown for life)
Father, I tried, but they wasn't on my side
(Accept my confession)
Yes, I confess, but I really could care less
(I'm down with the clown for life! A life)
Father, I tried, but they wasn't on my side
(I confess to ya)
Yes, I confess, but I really could care less
(I'll be down! Down with the clown for life)
Father, I tried, but they wasn't on my side
(I confess to ya! For life)
