I lived most of my life in New York City
Born and raised in the promised land
One day this man in black said, "Listen Jack"
Told me I was chosen to kiss the ring on his hand

He said, "Kindly reconsider the sins of your past"
And I said, "Mister you can kindly kiss my ass"

"Thou shalt not", but I know what I want "Thou shalt not"
"Thou shalt not", but I know what I need  "Thou shalt not"

Well, the son of a bitch must be crazy
Tellin' me I'm gonna go down, I said
"This ain't the inquisition, you ain't the Son of God
And I sure as hell don't give a damn"

He said, "You're long gone, can't you tell?"
And I said, "Mister, if I'm goin', I'll see you in hell, yeah"

"Thou shalt not", but I know what I want "Thou shalt not"
"Thou shalt not", yes I know what I need "Thou shalt not", yeah
"Thou shalt not", I've gotta live my life "Thou shalt not"
"Thou shalt not", any way I please "Thou shalt not"

Don't even try, you know I'd die to be free, oh yeah
And you wonder why, you can't bring this guy to his knees
'Cause I know what I want, yes, I know what I need
Well, I know what I want, I know what I need
I gotta live my life just the way I please, oh yeah

Yes I know what I want, yeah
"Thou shalt not", "Thou shalt not"
"Thou shalt not", "Thou shalt not"

"Thou shalt not", but I know what I want "Thou shalt not"
"Thou shalt not", oh, yes I do "Thou shalt not"
"Thou shalt not", I'm gonna live my life "Thou shalt not"
"Thou shalt not", any way I choose "Thou shalt not"

You got that right
