I know I've been a bad man
so let's see what happens
when I admit my own self denial
don't worry about the bad things
just go and keep on marching
when you got to live down your own life trial

Take a step back
nothing is what it seems
you could fall foward
and fall apart at the seams
You could easily misunderstand
think a good guy is a slob
doesn't take a sophisticated man
to enjoy a good blowjob
easily take for granted
a woman who could meet your needs
when it doesn't take an angel
to bring you to your knees
easily think you found god
and never read outside the lines
ever written what you thought
and realized you didn't fall in line?

I know I've been a bad man
so let's see what happens
when I admit my own self denial
don't worry about the bad things
just go and keep on marching
when you got to live down your own life trial

so you could be the man
with your organized thoughts
Taken too far inland
to find you know nothing at all
find your rhyme never had reason
and your reason never had rhyme
but you thought you knew what you said
and you said it all the time
like when I found my pocket had no funk
And I had to find some of my swing
when I thought a girl could give a fuck
then she never heard the ring
you gotta take a step back
and try to find that time
when you gave and took so much crap
and you didn't know you crossed the line

I know I've been a bad man
so let's see what happens
when I admit my own self denial
don't worry about the bad things
just go and keep on marching
when you got to live down your own life trial

So I will pray to the lord
and I confess, I have sinned
take me out that pearly door
and start outside my life again
three steps away from where ever I stood
and laugh at all the heroic deeds
watch you do everything you thought you should
realize you didn't have the need
Well that's how the world goes
one day's nemisis is another's friend
Bring all the bad memories to a close
and find you never found the end
one man's slave is another's master
you'll never feel alive like you do
when you can control yourself, it all matters
because you'll never meet a person quite like you
