Forbidden Fruit

[Intro] [Verse 1] High and lonesome out on Times Square Haven’t got a dime ain’t got a prayer Deliver us Lord from this golden calf People only want what they cannot have [Chorus] Forbidden fruit That’s the fruit that you’d better not taste     Forbidden fruit You’ve got one life that you’d better not waste     [Verse 2] How can I walk with this ball and chain? How can I land in this hurricane? Or is this part of man’s evolution To be torn between truth and illusion? [Chorus] Forbidden fruit That’s the route that you’d better not take      Forbidden fruit Just watch out for the sign of the snake     [Bridge] [Verse 3] Little brother got caught in the web He ran off to join the living dead Been through the mill seen the cross on the hill He sold his soul just for a thrill [Chorus] Forbidden fruit In hot pursuit out on a limb      Forbidden fruit Your whole world is closing in       [Verse 4] You got the picture but missed the drift About me workin’ the graveyard shift I never went in for no burglary But there’s a stranger inside of me [Chorus] Forbidden fruit Don’t you shoot the whole works away           Forbidden fruit It’s too high of a price to pay          [Bridge] [Solo]                                         [Verse 5] How can you hear with a bad connection? You can’t see when there’s no reception Keep your distance don’t fool with taboo ’Cause it’ll overtake and undertake you [Chorus] Forbidden fruit That’s the fruit that you’d better not taste          Forbidden fruit You’ve got one life that you’d better not waste          [Outro]
