Clouds of Guilt
Clouds of guilt
Oh, it's just the way I'm built
Clouds of guilt
Feel guilty when I leave (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Feel guilty when I stay (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Feel guilty when I'm down and out
And When I'm overpaid (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Feel guilty when I'm right
Feel guilty when I'm wrong
Even feel a pinch of guilt just singing you this song (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Don't ask me why it is (ooh-ooh-ooh)
It's just the way I'm built (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Even days of sunshine are dimmed By clouds of guilt
And if these words don't rhyme
Or a bit of milk gets spilt
I find myself overshadowed
By heavy clouds of guilt
Clouds of guilt
Oh, it's just the way I'm built
Under clouds of guilt
Feel guilty when I'm late
Or early to a ball (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Strange to say, feel guiltiest when I've done nothing at all (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Missed the funeral of a friend (ooh-ooh-ooh)
That one stung for years (I feel guilty)
But stranger still, felt even worse
For swallowing my tears (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Don't ask me why it is (ooh-ooh-ooh, guilty)
It's just the way I'm built (ooh-ooh-ooh, why?)
Even days of sunshine are dimmed by clouds of guilt (ooh-ooh-ooh)
And if these words don't rhyme
Or a bit of milk gets spilt
I find myself overshadowed
By heavy clouds of guilt
Clouds of guilt
Oh, It's just the way I'm built
Clouds of guilt
Oh, It's just the way I'm built
Is it so genetic flaw that is to blame?
Or old religious training steeped in shame
I'm guilty of feeling guilty all the time (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Wish there was a way to free my mind (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Don't ask me why it is
It's just the way I'm built (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Even days of sunshine are dimmed by clouds of guilt (ooh-ooh-ooh)
And if these words don't rhyme (ooh-ooh-ooh, I feel)
Or a bit of milk gets spilt (guilty)
I find myself overshadowed
By heavy clouds of guilt (ooh-ooh-ooh, guilty)
Can never seem to get away (ooh-ooh-ooh, why?)
From all these clouds of guilt (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Clouds of guilt
Oh, It's just the way I'm built
Under clouds of guilt
