| Lyrics: | When I look back upon my life
It's always with a sense of shame
I've always been the one to
blame
For everything I long to do
No matter when or where 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 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
For everything I long to do
No matter when or where 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 ever do
Every place I've ever been
Everywhere I'm going
to
It's a sin
Father, forgive me, I tried not to do it
Turned over a new leaf, then
tore right through 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 with a sense of shame
I've always been the one to blame
For everything I
long to do
No matter when or where 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 ever
do
Every place I've ever been
Everywhere I'm going to - it's a sin
It's a, it's a, it's
a, it's a sin
It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin
(Confiteor Deo omnipotenti vobis
fratres, quia peccavi nimis cogitatione,
verbo, opere et omissione, mea culpa, mea culpa, mea
maxima culpa)
