I know that I'm not perfect;
He's got a sweet forked tongue
I'll let myself be tempted
Let him talk; I know what I want
The tempting sin, the world outside
I've gotten tired of Paradise
Eve and Adam
Now she's got the key, the knowledge is near
Eve and Adam
By the ancient tree
Adam says he won't bite it;
"The will of God"; sour grapes
But one swing of my hips
And he's mine, that's all that it takes
The tempting sin, the world outside
I've gotten tired of Paradise
Eve and Adam
Now she's got the key, the knowledge is near
Eve and Adam
By the ancient tree
I am a woman, aware of the power I have
I've got myself to give, myself I can take back
Silently I rule them, playing with their feelings
It's easy to fool them; both don't know who pulls the strings
The tempting sin, the world outside
I've gotten tired of Paradise
I'll take the bitter with the sweet
I choose to see where this path leads
Eve and Adam
Now she's got the key, the knowledge is near
Eve and Adam
By the ancient tree
I am a woman, aware of the power I have
I've got myself to give, myself I can take back
Silently I rule them, playing with their feelings
It's easy to fool them; both don't know who pulls the strings
