The Sin Lyrics by Warren Zevon

The Sin Lyrics

    It's none of my business
    But if I may
    Remind you of the time
    When you did something you knew was wrong
    It wasn't called a crime
    And I'm not saying that you should give
    A sucker an even break
    I'm talking about the time
    That you were cruel for cruelty's sake
    I'm talking about the time
    That you were cruel for cruelty's sake

    How you gonna pay for
    How you gonna pay for
    How you gonna pay for the sin?
    How you gonna pay for
    How you gonna pay for
    How you gonna pay for the sin?
    Hah?

    Maybe you went and stuck your key
    In somebody else's door
    Maybe you went and helped yourself
    To something that wasn't yours
    Maybe you simply criticized
    Someone you hardly knew
    You ruined part of their life for them
    Part of your own life, too

    How you gonna pay for
    How you gonna pay for
    How you gonna pay for the sin?
    How you gonna pay for
    How you gonna pay for
    How you gonna pay for it then?

    If and when you feel an ill wind
    Don't be too surprised
    Remember when you should have
    Picked on somebody your own size

    How you gonna pay for
    How you gonna pay for
    How you gonna pay for the sin?
    How you gonna pay for
    How you gonna pay for
    How you gonna pay for the sin?
    How am I gonna pay for
    How am I gonna pay for
    How am I gonna pay for the sin?
