Cardinal Sins

Yeah you're trying our patience and it's wearing thin You're fighting for something that you cannot win To admit that must be a cardinal sin If the evidence is damning we'll be turning you in... ...side-out, upside-down Till all the coins spill on the ground We all know you had a price But you don't need to hear my advice Cuz you know best yeah don't ya? You'll get us out of this mess then won't ya? You can call it success but it'll haunt ya And then the eyes of the world will follow you down, down, down Now your hard-fought story, it served you well Fact from fiction, you thought no one would tell If you were honest you wouldn't have to think twice You give yourself away with every turn of the vice And even now you still go on Thinking that you've done nothing wrong I suppose the you'll confess But nothing will ever clear your debts Cuz you know best yeah don't ya? You'll get us out of this mess then won't ya? You can call it success but it'll haunt ya And then the eyes of the world will follow you down, down, down Yeah you've tried our patience and you've worn it thin You were fighting for something that you couldn't win To admit that must be a cardinal sin The evidence is damning but you won't give in Cuz you know best yeah don't ya? You'll get us out of this mess then won't ya? You can call it success but it'll haunt ya And then the eyes of the world will follow you down, down, down
