The Tiger Lillies - Sin lyrics
[The Tiger Lillies - Sin lyrics]
What is the point of this life that we lead?
The filth and the fury the neurotic need
Where are we going where does it lead?
The strife and the striving as
Life from us bleeds
Sin, sin
What is it's point, it's purpose, it's goal?
Where is it going, each one plays his role?
Striving with ego to triumph to win
For wealth and for power commit any sin
Sin, sin
The stinking corpse rank with decay
A king or a duke, forgotten today
Sin, sin
Murder, exploit, torture and maim
The greatest king, forgotten your name
The money and power, each one slave
It rots from the inside, completely depraved
Sin, sin
So thrust with your ego you will not be saved
We all end as paupers alone in our graves
Worry, hurry and fight for your rights
You'll never get there then bang
Out go the lights
Sin, sin
Each action, each striving, a pointless game
And after it's over, forgotten your name
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Sin, sin
The filth and the fury the neurotic need
Where are we going where does it lead?
The strife and the striving as
Life from us bleeds
Sin, sin
What is it's point, it's purpose, it's goal?
Where is it going, each one plays his role?
Striving with ego to triumph to win
For wealth and for power commit any sin
Sin, sin
The stinking corpse rank with decay
A king or a duke, forgotten today
Sin, sin
Murder, exploit, torture and maim
The greatest king, forgotten your name
The money and power, each one slave
It rots from the inside, completely depraved
Sin, sin
So thrust with your ego you will not be saved
We all end as paupers alone in our graves
Worry, hurry and fight for your rights
You'll never get there then bang
Out go the lights
Sin, sin
Each action, each striving, a pointless game
And after it's over, forgotten your name
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Sin, sin
