Sloth is Sin (The Prostitute) This song was inspired by a famous Russian novel. It's a sarcastic criticism of communism. A proper work ethic can only be carried out under the proper political system. |

Lyrics
On a bench in a littered park
With broken bottles at his feet
A drunken man
Puts his head in his hands
As he mumbles and weeps
About his failure and inability
To provide for his family
Sloth is sin, work sets you free
But that’s just a dream
In this society
You walk the streets under
Day and moonlight
Against the concrete slabs
Underpants stretched between
Your knees tight
A tongue licks your face
With the smell of rotten teeth
With dirty fingers
He gives your breast a squeeze
The church girls say the
Devil likes to wallow in his sin
They say that this is the pleasure
That you luxuriate in
Sloth is sin, work sets you free
But that’s the just a dream
In this economy
Lipstick smeared
All across your face
From kissing strangers
In your desperate disgrace
For so little money
You satisfy their needs
While the next one watches on
Impatiently
The church girls say this turns you on
As he demands a discount
Saying you’re not a pretty woman
Sloth is sin, work sets you free
But you can’t sell that dream
In this society
It’s your own fault; it’s your own fault
It’s your own fault; it’s your own fault
For everything you are
For everything you do
For everything you are
For everything you do
You come into the kitchen
Your mother waiting to
Pass these days
You hand her the money
That she so shamefully takes
She says nothing at all
You plead
Don’t let father waste it
On alcohol
Sloth is sin, work sets you free
But that’s just a dream
In this society
Sloth is sin, work sets you free
But that’s just a dream
In this society
