Original Sin

Pinch me

Pitch in

It's a cinch

With the cinch in

Make light work

Of your heavy lifting

Blueprint for thrifting

Light grifting

Big pimpin'

Dolomite's mission

Re-connect the hose

So the spicket is spittin'

Faucet water's flooding

Now the sinkhole's sinking

Use all the tricks

Throw the kitchen sink in

Started at the finish

Go back to the beginning

So - in the beginning

IT was written

A garden in Eden

Was the land of privilege

Intersection of perfection

And easy living

But things were getting tepid

Something was missing

God kicked up the dust

And created man

But Adam needed a partner

So He came up with a plan

Cracked open his six pack

Grabbed a rib and

Since she came from man

They called her woman

First sin, last sin

Let the lesson begin

History uncovered

Back to the origin

How did we get in

This predicament?

Passed on passed down

Through the next of kin?

Last sin, first sin

How was it begotten

Trickled down from generations

Long forgotten

Dropped some knowledge from the tree

But the core was rotten

One bite, one plight

One original sin

Adam fell for Eve

And my dude was smitten

Planting eggplants nude

While she raising kittens

Life was Purr-fect

Lord-permitting

There was no one like Eve

Who could take a good ribbing

But there was one rule

That God had given

Don't eat the big apple

That sh*t's forbidden

When he turned his back

The serpent went slitherin'

Malintent he was slinging

Malfoy the Maleficent

Let me blow ya mind, Eve

If you need convincing

Only one bite away

From running the business

Do you want to be ruled

With so many restrictions

Take your share of the power

Queen - say good riddance

Twice shy

Once bitten

Eve took a taste - asked Adam to mimic

Honey do it - nothing to it

If you love me, won't you prove it?

Now it's paradise lost

Two lives in ruin

First sin, last sin

Let the lesson begin

History uncovered

Back to the origin

How did we get into

This predicament?

Passed on and passed down

Through the next of kin?

Last sin, first sin

How was it begotten

Trickled down from generations

Long forgotten

Dropped some knowledge from the tree

But the core was rotten

One bite, one plight

One original sin

The deed was done - indeed

There was no defending

The unwritten contract

They just rescinded

What would be the punishment

The Lord was delivering?

The sky opened up

And a voice started ringing

Now you'll feel shame

See hate and killing

Now you'll feel pain

Recognize all your sinning

Compromise on the consequences?

I'm unwilling

But, I'm God - I'm benevolent

Of course you're forgiven

They should've never tried

To game the system

Now they're paranoid, annoyed,

And extremely guilt-ridden

Fast forward to the present

The world is still spinning

But in the context

The message hits different

Now I hate to admit it

But the kid is significant

Gifted

Now the weight is lifted

Hot off the press

Now the money's printin'

Don't be Chi

In the Land of Lincoln

Put your cap on

Now you thinkin'

No flinchin'

Don't let 'em catch you blinkin'

On the brink 1-8-2

Let it sink in

Raise your glass

And proceed to clinkin'

Slip a sip in

Begin the drinkin'

Tip it back

Let the juice and gin in

In spite of the sin-nin'

Carefree and grin-nin'

Nowadays that's what I call winnin'

First sin, last sin

Let the lesson begin

History uncovered

Back to the origin

How did we get into

This predicament?

Passed on and passed down

Through the next of kin?

Last sin, first sin

How was it begotten

Trickled down from generations

Long forgotten

Dropped some knowledge from the tree

One bite, one plight

One original sin
