Confessions - Johnny Hallyday

So I confess, but even if I’m all wrong

I’ll be down with the clown till I’m dead and gone

Yes, I confess, but I really could care less

Father, I tried, but they wasn’t on my side

Yes, I confess, but I really could care less

Father, I tried, but they wasn’t on my side

I confess, this lady had a purse (old), so I took it (snatch)

I took it home, opened it up, and shook it (look)

She had papers (comb), lipstick and nail polish (shit)

Credit cards and about twenty-seven dollars (change)

I bought a fifth (liquor), drank it and laid there (stoned)

It seemed like I could see the purse everywhere (bone)

On the light post (look), by this mail box (look)

I tried to run from it (where?), I ran a couple blocks (look!)

But there it was, on the side walk, waitin' for me (shit!)

It tried to lure me to it (stop!), I had to fuckin' do it (no!)

I picked it up (), and stuck my fuckin' hand in it (Agh)

It was full of rats (Ah!), and they fuckin' bit it off (Why?)

Father I confess, I’m a criminal ()

But my worlds too subliminal, around me

Look at them, all the wicked masses

That’s why I’m down with the clown till I’m ashes

Yes, I confess, but I really could care less

Father, I tried, but they wasn’t on my side

Yes, I confess, but I really could care less

Father, I tried, but they wasn’t on my side

It’s like a circus, a wicked carnival

Everybody’s got a ticket, they’re lookin'

For the freaks, to point and gawk at

Look at yourself, the joke’s on you, Jack

Yes, I confess, but I really could care less

(Down with the clown for life!)

Father, I tried, but they wasn’t on my side

(I confess to ya!)

Yes, I confess, but I really could care less

(Down with the clown for life!)

Father, I tried, but they wasn’t on my side

(Accept my confession!)

Yes, I confess, but I really could care less

(I'm down with the clown for life! A life!)

Father, I tried, but they wasn’t on my side

(I confess to ya!)

Yes, I confess, but I really could care less

(I'll be down! Down with the clown for life!)

Father, I tried, but they wasn’t on my side

(I confess to ya! For life!)
