As Moses went up to the mountain to see his God
We remained down here and made our lord
Nobody claimed ignorance of this sin
We brought our finest jewelries to make this thing
Be at the front and fight until you’re dead
From dawn to dusk I will lay with her in bed
Nobody claimed ignorance of this sin
We brought our finest jewelries to make this thing
Standing at her door Miss Passion winks at me
In her hand my ring; in my hand her key
Nobody claimed ignorance of this sin
We brought our finest jewelries to make this thing.
I know the truth, but this crowd calls for blood
I will wash my hands then hand over the sword
Nobody claimed ignorance of this sin
We brought our finest jewelries to make this thing
His command was clear “Eat it and die”
Yet we both ate it with blissful sighs
Nobody claimed ignorance of this sin
We brought our finest jewelries to make this thing
The fact remains that I loved the Christ till I died
But for 30 shekels of silver I would have left my mother’s side
Nobody claimed to be ignorant of this sin
We brought our finest jewelries to make this thing
But are people of today better than those of the past?
We know the commands and sins and still forget fast
Every misstep we make is actually a conscious step
The punishment of hell a fable with no depth
Nobody claimed ignorance of this sin
We brought out finest jewelries to make this thing
