Thou Shalt Not

Thou Shalt Not
I lived most of my life in New York City
Born and raised in the promised land
One day this man in black said, "Listen Jack"
Told me I was chosen to kiss the ring on his hand

He said, "Kindly reconsider the sins of your past"
And I said, "Mister you can kindly kiss my ass"
"Thou shalt not"
But, I know what I want
"Thou shalt not" "Thou shalt not"
But, I know what I need--"Thou shalt not"
Well, the son of a bitch must be crazy
Tellin' me I'm gonna go down
I said, "this ain't the inquisition, you ain't the son of God
And I sure as hell don't give a damn!"
He said, "You're long gone, can't you tell?"
And I said, "Mister if I'm going, I'll see you in hell! Yeah!"
"Thou shalt not"
But, I know what I want
"Thou shalt not" "Thou shalt not"
Yes, I know what I need
"Thou shalt not"--Yeah--"Thou shalt not"
I'm Gonna live my life
"Thou shalt not" "Thou shalt not"
Any way I please--"Thou shalt not"

Don't even try
You know I'd die to be free
Oh yeah...and you wonder why
You can't bring this guy to his knees.
'Cause I know what I want
Yes, I know what I need
Well, I know what I want, I know what I need
I gotta live my life just the way I please
Oh yeah
Yes I know what I want
Yeaaahhhhh!
"Thou shalt not" "Thou shalt not"
"Thou shalt not" "Thou shalt not"
"Thou shalt not"
But, I know what I want
"Thou shalt not" "Thou shalt not"
Oh, yes I do--"Thou shalt not"
"Thou shalt not"
I'm gonna live my life
"Thou shalt not" "Thou shalt not"
Any way I choose--"Thou shalt not"
Yeah
You got that right.
