I heard something on the stereo
“Sometimes perfection can be perfect hell”
Though I got soul – a reverse Oreo
I’m intense like New York – I’m no southern belle
Sometimes a sinner – Sometimes a saint
Take me as I am – Forgive what I ain’t
Defining a love… will always taint
An understatement – I’m not always easy
A feisty red devil – Sometimes I act sleazy
But I’m really an angel, when we’re apart…
A halo is hovering over my heart
Sometimes a sinner – Sometimes a saint
Take me as I am – Forgive what I ain’t
Defining a love… will always taint
So I wear fishnets – killer J.Lo shoes!
Shakin’ my ass helps me kick da blues!
But despite the fact I speak like a sailor
My heart is in chains, with you as its jailor
Sometimes a sinner – Sometimes a saint
Take me as I am – Forgive what I ain’t
Defining a love… will always taint
Baby – this isn’t a spell or a hex
I’m not really a witch – I’m just complex
So please don’t try to label or box me in
Maybe there is such a thing as divine sin
Sometimes a sinner – Sometimes a saint
Take me as I am – Forgive what I ain’t
Defining a love… will always taint
Sometimes a sinner – Sometimes a saint
Take me as I am – Forgive what I ain’t
Defining a love… will always taint
