[Olly alexander]

When I look back upon my life

It's always with a sense of shame

I've always been the one to blame

For everything I long to do

No matter when or where or who

Has one thing in common, too.

It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin

It's a sin

Everything I've ever done

Everything I ever do

Every place I've ever been

Everywhere I'm going to

It's a sin.

[Elton john]

At school, they taught me how to be

So pure in thought and word and deed

They didn't quite succeed

For everything I long to do

No matter when or where or who

Has one thing in common, too.

[Elton john & olly alexander (olly alexander) (elton john)]

It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin

It's a sin

(Everything I've ever done)

(Everything I ever do)

(Every place I've ever been)

(Everywhere I'm going to)

It's a sin.

[Olly alexander (elton john)]

Father, forgive me

I tried not to do it

Turned over a new leaf

Then tore right through it

(Whatever you taught me)

(I didn't believe it)

(Father, you fought me)

('cause I didn't care)

And I still don't understand

Still don't understand, yeah...

[Elton john (olly alexander)]

So I look back upon my life

Forever with a sense of shame

I've always been the one to blame

(For everything I long to do)

(No matter when or where or who)

(Has one thing in common, too)

[Elton john & olly alexander (olly alexander)]

It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin

It's a sin

Everything I've ever done (i've ever done)

Everything I ever do (I ever do)

Every place I've ever been

Everywhere I'm going to

It's a sin.

It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin

It's a sin

Everything I've ever done

Everything I ever do

Every place I've ever been

Everywhere I'm going to

It's a sin.
