Confessions

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!)
