lyrics

I'm not ready to step aside,
I'm not ready to pack it in,
I'm not going to just lay down and die,
Even if I've got to keep living in sin,
Let's begin...

I may no longer believe in my dreams,
But I can't stop making plans,
Though everything is falling apart at the seams,
Though my castles all are made of sand

Prey to superstition, malediction, cruel addiction,
Who'll give my benediction?

Tired of persecution, no solution, prostitution,
Who'll give me absolution?


(chorus)
Once upon a time I was without sin and without crime,
But I fell down,
And I forgot

Though I've battled for control and even my very soul,
I won't give up,
I will not


You can't get over and you can't come in,
You're just working class and you can't win,
Can't get ahead no matter what you do,
Move over rover because I'm busting through

Prey to superstition, malediction, cruel addiction,
Who'll give my benediction?

Tired of persecution, no solution, prostitution,
Who'll give me absolution?


(chorus)
Once upon a time I was without sin and without crime,
But I fell down,
And I forgot

Though I've battled for control and even my very soul,
I won't give up,
I will not
