It's a Sin Lyrics

(Pet Shop Boys)

When I look back upon my life
It's always with a sense of shame
I've always been the one to blame

Chorus:

For everything I long to do
No matter where or when or who
Has one thing in common, too
It's a...it's a...it's a...
It's 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!

At school they taught me how to be
So pure in thought, and word and deed
They didn't quite succeed

Chorus

Father, forgive me,
I tried not to do it
Turned over a new leaf,
Then tore right though it
Whatever you taught me,
I didn't believe it
Father, you fought me,
'Cause I didn't care
And I still don't understand...

So I look back upon my life
Forever wtih a sense of shame
I've always been the one to blame...

Chorus:

For everything I long to do
No matter where or when or who
Has one thing in common, too
It's a...it's a...it's a...
It's a sin! (Ahh...)
It's a sin! (Ahh...)
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!

(Ahh...)

(Ahh...)

It's a...it's a...it's a...
It's a sin! (Ahh...)
It's a...it's a...it's a...
It's a sin! (Ahh...)
It's a sin! (Ooh yeah!)
It's a sin! (Oh...)
It's a sin! (Sin...!)

Sin!
