Forbidden Fruit |
High and lonesome out on Times Square |
Haven’t got a dime, ain’t got a prayer |
Deliver us, Lord, from this golden calf |
People only want what they cannot have |
Forbidden fruit |
That’s the fruit that you’d better not taste |
Forbidden fruit |
You’ve got one life that you’d better not waste |
How can I walk with this ball and chain? |
How can I land in this hurricane? |
Or is this part of man’s evolution |
To be torn between truth and illusion? |
Forbidden fruit |
That’s the route that you’d better not take |
Forbidden fruit |
Just watch out for the sign of the snake |
Little brother got caught in the web |
He ran off to join the living dead |
Been through the mill, seen the cross on the hill |
He sold his soul just for a thrill |
Forbidden fruit |
In hot pursuit out on a limb |
Forbidden fruit |
Your whole world is closing in You got the picture but missed the drift |
About me workin' the graveyard shift |
I never went in for no burglary |
But there’s a stranger inside of me Forbidden fruit |
Don’t you shoot the whole works away |
Forbidden fruit |
It’s too high of a price to pay |
How can you hear with a bad connection? |
You can’t see when there’s no reception |
Keep your distance, don’t fool with taboo |
'Cause it’ll overtake and undertake you |
Forbidden fruit |
That’s the fruit that you’d better not taste |
Forbidden fruit |
You’ve got one life that you’d better not waste |
