(The) Most Unoriginal Sin

Lyrics
What there was left of us Was all covered in dust and thick skin ♪ A half eaten apple or the whole Sistine Chapel Painted on the head of a pin A lifelong love's work gone up in a smirk And you didn't even see her waltz in ♪ Now this love is a ghost Having played host to the most unoriginal sin ♪ At the wedding we smiled As some devil played wild violin ♪ Soon after the chapel she offered me that apple One bite and I was gone with the wind And you needed no proof 'Cause the whole naked truth Was wearin' only an infidel's grin ♪ And a proud schoolboy's boast Of having left his post for the most unoriginal sin ♪ Now the jukebox is humming All the venial shortcomings of men ♪ But I found me this drink that can finally sink All the skills that I've been wallowing in Buddy, once you get started Once true love's departed You do it over and over again ♪ So tonight I will toast Just whoever comes close To the most unoriginal sin ♪ So tonight I will toast Just whoever comes close To the most unoriginal sin
