Lyrics

Forbidden Fruit

Born in the Garden of Eden, what went wrong?
The woman listened to the serpent, the man to her song!
And she sang "Come and eat of the tree of forbidden fruit!"
"I did, and you know that we can do it!"
"It won't harm you, and you know I can prove it!"
"Won't you come and eat, the forbidden fruit?"

God was walking through the garden when he called for man.
He was hiding, because now he could understand!
And God said," you have eaten what I told you not to!"
Lord, I listened to the woman and she the serpent too!
And they sang," Come and eat of the tree of forbidden fruit?"
"I did, and you know that we can do it!"
"It won't harm you, and you know I can prove it!"
"Won't you come and eat, the forbidden fruit?"

Lord to the serpent said, "for this you lust!"
"You will crawl on your stomach, and eat the dust!"
"And the woman, she know the pain, of childbirth again and again!"
"And the man, will work the whole day through!"
"Sweat from the morning till the night, he will do!"
"This is the punishment, for the first temptation!"
"You must leave from this place, and raise the nations!"

And she sang "Come and eat of the tree forbidden fruit!"
"I did, and you know that we can do it!"
"It won't harm you, and you know I can prove it!"
"Won't you come and eat, the forbidden fruit?"
"Come and eat of the tree of forbidden fruit!"
"I did, and you know that we can do it!"
