When I look back upon my life,
it's always with a sense of shame,
I've always been the one to blame.
For everything I long to do,
no matter when or where or who,
has one thing in common too.
It's a sin,
sin,
what a sin,
it's a sin.
Everything I've ever done,
everything I'll ever do,
every place I've ever been,
everywhere I'm going to,
it's a sin.
My father taught me how to be
so pure in thought and word and deed.
They didn't quite succeed.
For everything I long to do,
no matter when or where or who,
has one thing in common too.
It's a sin,
such a sin,
it's a sin,
it's a sin.
Everything I've ever done,
and everything I'll ever do,
every place I've ever been,
everywhere I'm going to,
it's a sin—
it's a sin.

Yes, everything I long to do,
no matter when or where or who,
has one thing in common too.
It's a sin,
it's a sin,
what a sin,
it's a sin.
It's a sin.
