High and lonesome out on times square

Deliver us, lord, from this golden calf

People only want what they cannot have

How can i walk with this ball and chain?

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

Forbidden fruit

In hot pursuit out on a limb

Forbidden fruit

Your whole world is closing in



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

Forbidden fruit

Don't you shoot the whole works away

Forbidden fruit

It's too high of a price to pay



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

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
