8.THOU SHALT NOT
Lyrics:Gene Simmons
Music:Gene Simmons
I lived most of my life in New York City
Born and raised in the promised land
One day this man in black said, 'Listen Jack'
Told me I was chosen to kiss the ring on his hand
He said 'Kindly reconsider the sins of your past'
And I said 'Mister you can kindly kiss my ass'
'Thou shalt not' - but I know what I want - 'Thou shalt not'
'Thou shalt not' - but I know what I need - 'Thou shalt not'
Well, the son of a bitch must be crazy
Tellin' me I'm gonna go down
I said, 'this ain't the inquisition, you ain't the son of God
And I sure as hell don't give a damn'
He said, 'You're long gone, can't you tell?'
And I said 'Mister, if I'm goin', I'll see you in hell! Yeah!'
'Thou shalt not' - but I know what I want - 'Thou shalt not'
'Thou shalt not' - but I know what I need - 'Thou shalt not' -
yeah
'Thou shalt not' - gotta live my life - 'Thou shalt not'
'Thou shalt not' - any way I please - 'Thou shalt not'
Don't even try, you know I'd die to be free, oh yeah
And you wonder why, you can't bring this guy to his knees
'Cause I know what I want, yes, I know what I need
Well, I know what I want, I know what I need
Gotta live my life just the way I please, ooh yeah
'Cause I know what I want, yeaaahhhhh!
'Thou shalt not', 'Thou shalt not'
'Thou shalt not', 'Thou shalt not'
'Thou shalt not' - but I know what I want - 'Thou shalt not'
'Thou shalt not' - oh, yes I do - 'Thou shalt not'
'Thou shalt not' - I'm gonna live my life - 'Thou shalt not'
'Thou shalt not' - any way I choose - 'Thou shalt not'
You got that right.
