Sinner

CHORUS 1

I don’t want a priest
To tell me I’m a sinner.
I don’t need a church
To save my soul.
I don’t want to feast
On someone else’s dinner.
‘Cos I don’t want to want
When I get old

VERSE 1

My ma, she always taught me
Take care of what you have
You can learn a lot from what you see.
Science always showed me
to think about the land under your feet.
Under your feet

CHORUS 2

I don’t want a priest
To tell me I’m a sinner.
I don’t need a church
To save my soul.
and I don’t want to feel
When someone else is winner
‘Cos I don’t want to want
When I get old

VERSE 2

My friends always told me
Be careful how you feel
Don’t go chasing someone else’s dream
Through travels I have learnt
The world has got a lot, a lot to give
Got a lot to give *2

BRIDGE

’Cos I don’t wanna be there
when she’s gone.
She’s holding all the aces
and she knows.
I’m losing all my faith
in what I haven’t known
And I don’t wanna face it
on my own...
