I know a thing about contrition because I've got enough to spare. I'll be granting your permission because you haven't got a prayer. Hey, hallelujah! Come on, sing the praise and let the spirit come on through you. We got innocence for days! I think I'm gonna burn in Hell. Everybody burn the house right down and say what I wanna say. Tell me I'm an angel, take this to my grave. Tell me I'm a bad man, kick me like a stray. Tell me I'm an angel, take this to my grave. S-I-N. I S-I-N.
     You play ring-around-the-ambulance like you never gave a care. Get the choir boys around you (it's a compliment, I swear). Ashes to ashes, we all fall down. I wanna hear you sing the praise. Ashes to ashes, we all fall down! We got innocence for days! I think I'm gonna burn in Hell. Everybody burn the house right down and say what I wanna say. Tell me I'm an angel, take this to my grave. Tell me I'm a bad man, kick me like a stray. Tell me I'm an angel, take this to my grave.
     You better run like the Devil because they're never gonna leave you alone. You'd better hop in the alley because they're never gonna find you a home. As the blood runs down the walls, you see me creepin' up these halls. I've been a bad motherfucker. Tell your sister I'm another and say what I wanna say. Tell me I'm an angel, take this to my grave. Tell me I'm a bad man, kick me like a stray. Tell me I'm an angel, take this to my grave.

Tell me I'm a bad, bad, bad, bad man.
Tell me I'm a bad, bad, bad, bad man.
Tell me I'm a bad, bad, bad, bad man.
Tell me I'm a bad, bad, bad, bad man.

Get up!

Get out!

S-I-N. I S-I-N!
