  S1:
  I've been a bad, bad girl 

  I've been careless with a delicate man 

  And it's a sad, sad world 

  When a girl will break a boy just because she can

  B1:
  Don't you tell me to deny it 

  I've done wrong and I want to suffer for my sins 

  I've come to you 'cause I need guidance to be true 

  And I just don't know where I can begin

  R1:
  Ooh, what I need is a good defense 

  'Cause I'm feelin' like a criminal 

  And I need to be redeemed 

  To the one I've sinned against 

  Because he's all I ever knew of love -x---x---x x---x---x---x

  S2:
  Heaven, help me for the way I am 

  Save me from these evil deeds before I get them done 

  I know tomorrow brings the consequence at hand 

  But I keep livin' this day like the next will never come

  B2:
  Oh, help me, but don't tell me to deny it 

  I've got to cleanse myself of all these lies  

  'Til I'm good enough for him 

  I've got a lot to lose and I'm bettin' high, so I'm beggin' you 

  Before it ends just tell me where to begin

  B3:
  Let me know the way before there's hell to pay 

  Give me room to lay the law and let me go 

  I've got to make a play to make my lover stay 

  So, what would an angel say? 

  The devil wants to know
