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...)
