"Why Must I Go On" lyrics

There once was a lad born to a man
Who knew no right from wrong
And all along he'd sing this song
"Why must I go on?"
He stands in the back of a room smoking crack rocks
Alone with a smile on his face
Knowing full well that he's going to hell
Not just going but gone without a trace

There once was a lass born to an ass
Who knew no right from wrong
And all along she'd sing this song
"Why must I go on?"
She stands in the black of the alley with a babylon
Hanging from the end of a chain
Sneaking up behind, yeah, to do some crime
Snatch your purse but she'll also smash your brains

He stands in the back of a room smoking crack rocks
Alone with a smile on his face
Knowing full well that he's going to hell
Not just going but gone without a trace
She stands in the black of the alley with a babylon
Hanging from the end of a chain
Sneaking up behind, yeah, to do some crime
Snatch your purse but she'll also smash your brains
