When i'm hosed and they're closing in, maybe only then,
Really, i'll try to get right with myself.
So i'll grope down that ladder again, until i'm tumbling -
But really, i just want to slide, i want to crash-land.
While my friend, my associate, he's a regal man.
He bindles and he twists and ties, gives the reckoning,
And then it's back on the road again with maybe thirteen grand.
Moralize all you might like, i don't believe in it.

You've never earned your soul. i know, (x 3)
But i'm gonna try, though, i'm gonna try.

I'm a rich young sophisticate, i've got girls and friends.
I'm doing what i really like and getting paid for it.
There is no key, there's no plan; i discovered that.
And, truly, i don't think you'll find a happier man.

You've never earned your soul. i know, (x 3)
But i'm gonna try, though, i'm gonna try.
You float up high and it isn't a sin.
And there isn't a hell where we'll be sent.
There's only now, and there isn't then. so just breathe it in.
