You can be saved in baptismal waters
A blessed virgin child
You can behave and ignore that you notice
Questions all the while

But don't ask for truth and conscience
Don't ask why Eve was an angel
Heaven's the big time, baby
So don't ask for more than you bargained

Be sweet and sane
And you're pardoned
Eve was born for the man
Don't forget your place

You can be veiled in a foreign country
Never show your skin
You can be traded with all your dowry
Suffering for sin

But don't ask for truth and conscience
Don't ask why Eve was an angel
Heaven's the big time, baby
So don't ask for more than you bargained

Be sweet and sane
And you're pardoned
Eve was born for the man
Don't forget your place

Fallen angel, fallen angel
Fallen angel, fallen angel

You can be saved in baptismal waters
A blessed virgin child
You can behave and ignore that you notice
Questions all the while

But don't ask for truth and conscience
Don't ask why Eve was an angel
Heaven's the big time, baby
So don't ask for more than you bargained

Don't ask for truth and conscience
Don't ask why Eve was an angel
Heaven's the big time, baby
So don't ask for more than you bargained

Be sweet and sane
And you're pardoned
Don't ask for more
Than you bargained

Be sweet and sane
And you're pardoned
Eve was born for the man
Don't forget your place
