(this ain't) an original sin

i came in here lookin' for a lover

but now i think i'll settle for a friend

and if it goes right i could take you home tonight

and try to make it worth the trouble we put in

and i saw you standin' there lookin' for somethin'

i'm fairly certain i'm exactly what you need

no ma'am i ain't claimin' i'm a doctor

but i know a good old-fashioned cure-all homemade remedy

so we won't be the first ones

tryin' out this medicine

they've been usin' it for years

all our parents

all our peers

and all our friends

this ain't an original sin

this ain't an original sin

it ain't original

i don't need to be ferdinand magellan

jumpin' first into far-off distant lands

neil armstrong'll always be the first one

to take that tiny little giant step for all of man

so we won't be the first ones

there's lots of steps to stumble in

we've been doin' it for years

so we might as well just do it all again

yeah

this ain't an original sin

this ain't an original sin

this ain't original

to hell with the snake and the apple and adam and eve

if they've done what they were s'posed to

there wouldn't be you

there wouldn't be me

this ain't original sin

this ain't an original sin

this ain't an original sin

this ain't an original sin
