w/Riff 3 (x3)
THERE ALWAYS COMES A TIME
WHEN YOU DO WHAT YOU WANT TO DO
YOU KNOW YOU SHOULDN'T DO IT
BUT YOU DO IT ANYWAY
AND WHEN HE HAD THAT TIME
WHEN HE KNEW WHAT HE WANTED TO
HE QUICKLY PLACED HIS ORDER
THOUGH HE NEVER THOUGHT HE'D PAY
BUT THE LINES TURNED TO LIES
AND THE LIES TURNED TO TANGLES
AND YOU'RE PALE AS A CADAVER
THOUGH YOU THINK IT DOESN'T SHOW
SO YOU LIVE WITH THE LIES
AND THE FRIENDS THAT IT GATHERS
BUT SOMEWHERE IN YOUR HEART YOU KNOW YOU
GOT TO LET IT
GOT TO LET IT
w/Riff 2
GOT TO LET IT (7x2=14 times)
YOU GOT TO LET IT
w/Chorus (PARAGONS OF INNOCENCE QUESTIONING OF YOUR INTENT...)
