lyrics

HAIRSHIRT

It's all the same
It's all your fault
Prepare yourself
For the assault

When you lay down
Don't close your eyes
Cuz all your sins
gonna shout surprise

Put on your hairshirt
Spread your arms wide
Let this cruel world
Be purified

The devil waits
For those who pray
And then he whispers
What they meant to say

The world will know
The bad you've done
Your punishment
Will be such fun

Put on your hairshirt
Spread your arms wide
Let this cruel world
Be purified

Build up a big funeral pyre
Burn your jealousy, torch your desire
Bid a fond farewell to your envy
Feel the spirit fill you with its frenzy

Lust is just one
Reason men moan
You have to endure
Pain to atone

So if you want
Your sins erased
You must be willing
To be abased
