 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
 while the pimp  and the priest prey quietly where the precious sinners sit

 confess, oh! confess... in the chapel or brothel where we suffocate stress.

 we’ve got the time if you’ve got the scratch

Har____der I can’t breathe__________________________
 Now the priest  and the pimp  are already  equipped
 with an enigmatic  frontage posts "we welcome walk-ins"
 So we corner  our pace  and make quick  for the door
 to be pardoned  and passed from the bed to the floor.
