The pimp and the priest pounce on quickened cats feet

for the freshest young blood innocence for the feast

the book will then brew what the sinful commit
          Fm/Ab                                                       G

   Fm    Gm     Ab             Cm        Dmadd11          Eb        Gm6
confess, oh! confess   in the chapel or brothel where we suffocate stress.
Fm*           Cm*         Gm             Ab
we’ve got the time    if  you’ve got the scratch
       Cm           Cm/G           G
(we'll conquer your sins while she screams on her back.)

        Cm             Cm/B       Cm7/Bb     F/A
Now the priest and the pimp are already   equipped
        Fm/Ab                                     G
with an enigmatic frontage posts "we welcome walk-ins"
      Cm         Cm/B          Cm7/Bb        F/A
So we corner our pace and make quick for the door
      Fm/Ab                                    G
to be pardoned and passed from the bed to the floor.
