Simple Minds - Seven Deadly Sins lyrics

Ever felt that you've been lied And somehow you just can't provide the proof Ever felt you're cast aside And sheltered from the universal truth Ever find when trouble calls you're first in line And stick your finger in Everybody's talking 'bout 7 deadly sins Number one says drop the gun There's nothing out there that's worth dying for And number two that's me and you I'm green inside and jealous to the core Number three fidelity i've lost the path And i'd better start again This thing's got a strange mystique The 7 deadly sins This thing's got the whole world beat 7 deadly sins I can hear them calling out I can hear them screaming out Blood is sweet like a deep red river And where it goes i don't know You make me sweat And you make me shiver Where it goes i don't know If you've got sticky fingers You got dreams that linger running through your brain Well vanity's the flying "v" Desire is the one who gets the blame If you're looking for a goldmine When all around you seems be tin I'm not superstitious 'bout the 7 deadly sins Everybody's calling out 7 deadly sins Everybody's dreamin' 'bout 7 deadly sins Written by : kerr/burchill reproduced without permission
