Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I lie awake at night
And think about it
Where I have been
And who I've been with
'Cause all around me
I see them droppin' like flies
Every time they tell us
We say it doesn't exist
And all we wanna do
Just to have some fun
[Verse 2]
Reverend Jackson says
The time has come
That the holy book has been talkin' about
The Reverend also said
Where there's pleasure, there will always be danger
On his knees, I heard him pray so hard, he said
[Verse 3]
God, save Your children
Save us from the sins of the flesh
Save us from the sins of the flesh
Save us from the sins of the flesh
Save us from the sins of the flesh, yeah
[Verse 4]
Things we have learned
From our good and loving parents, ooh
When temptation comes
All becomes useless
Like an ashtray on a motorbike
Everything you do, remember
The body bag hangs
Next to the first aid kit
It's your life
It's your world
I'm just passin' through
[Verse 5]
Reverend Jackson said
The time has come
That the holy book has been talkin' about
[Verse 6]
Save us from the sins of the flesh
Save us from the sins of the flesh
Save us from the sins of the flesh
Save us from the sins of the flesh
Save us from the sins of the flesh
Save us from the sins of the flesh
Save us from the sins of the flesh
Save us from the sins of the flesh
