Kiss - Thou Shalt Not lyrics

I lived most of my life in New York City

Born and raised in the promised land

One day this man in black said, "Listen Jack"

Told me I was chosen to kiss the ring on his hand

He said "Kindly reconsider the sins of your past"

And I said "Mister you can kindly kiss my ass"

"Thou shalt not" - but I know what I want - "Thou shalt not"

"Thou shalt not" - but I know what I need - "Thou shalt not"

Well, the son of a bitch must be crazy

Tellin' me I'm gonna go down

I said, "this ain't the inquisition, you ain't the son of God

And I sure as hell don't give a damn"

He said, "You're long gone, can't you tell?"

And I said "Mister, if I'm goin', I'll see you in hell! Yeah!"

"Thou shalt not" - but I know what I want - "Thou shalt not"

"Thou shalt not" - but I know what I need - "Thou shalt not" - yeah

"Thou shalt not" - gotta live my life - "Thou shalt not"

"Thou shalt not" - any way I please - "Thou shalt not"

Don't even try, you know I'd die to be free, oh yeah

And you wonder why, you can't bring this guy to his knees

'Cause I know what I want, yes, I know what I need

Well, I know what I want, I know what I need

Gotta live my life just the way I please, ooh yeah

(Instrumental break)

'Cause I know what I want, yeaaahhhhh!

"Thou shalt not", "Thou shalt not"

"Thou shalt not", "Thou shalt not"

"Thou shalt not" - but I know what I want - "Thou shalt not"

"Thou shalt not" - oh, yes I do - "Thou shalt not"

"Thou shalt not" - I'm gonna live my life - "Thou shalt not"

"Thou shalt not" - any way I choose - "Thou shalt not"

You got that right.
