[Verse 1]
A woman with a knowing smile caught my eye
She sat there with a drink alone
The Barkeep says they call her "Original Sin"
The very first scapegoat when the trouble set in
Mother to the millions, but queen to none
She sits and sips her drink unfazed
Barkeep says they'll take her away in a bit
She overstepped and now must pay for her sins
[Pre-Chorus]
The court is gathered, judge sits low
But round the room, the jury know
God's not gonna help you now, my girl
So save your prayers
[Chorus]
Legions of daughters, thosе that you fought for
Happily curse your name now
Drink from the cup, girl, and in anothеr world
History sings the same vow
Ruled by religion, they speak but we listen
And offer a lamb to the slaughter
Easy to lay the blame onto her altar
As mother dies for daughter
A woman with a knowing smile caught my eye
She sat there with a drink alone
The Barkeep says they call her "Original Sin"
The very first scapegoat when the trouble set in
Mother to the millions, but queen to none
She sits and sips her drink unfazed
Barkeep says they'll take her away in a bit
She overstepped and now must pay for her sins
[Pre-Chorus]
The court is gathered, judge sits low
But round the room, the jury know
God's not gonna help you now, my girl
So save your prayers
[Chorus]
Legions of daughters, thosе that you fought for
Happily curse your name now
Drink from the cup, girl, and in anothеr world
History sings the same vow
Ruled by religion, they speak but we listen
And offer a lamb to the slaughter
Easy to lay the blame onto her altar
As mother dies for daughter
