WAGES OF SIN

Home demo version 3



[Spoken:] Wages Of Sin, voice choir, bridge.

Oh, oh, oh, oh oh oh
Ooh
Oh, oh, oh, oooh, ooh, oooh, ooh, oooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Oooooooooooooooooooooooooh

I seen a man and he tore apart himself apart every day
Hey man...
What are you doing?

Na na na no one could hear sha na na no one no
Still wages of sin they keep me paying
Wages of sin for the wrongs that we've done
All my life now, I've been guilty
But I don't know what it is that I've done

Oh, oh, oooh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oooooooh, ooooooooooh, oh, oh, oh, ooooooh
Oh, oooooh

Baby and we pull each other
You pull my heart out
You really him
Baby and I hate him

Wages of sin we keep payin'
Wages of sin for the wrongs that we've done
Wages of sin... payin'
Turn to... Done, like I turn to no one

Ooooh, ooooh, oooh, ooooh
Oh, oooh, oooh
