9. Temptation (4:28)
"Temptation"
Adam looked at eve she said that apple's lookin' sweet
The serpent slithered up and said c'mon let's eat
They knew that they were told to resist the tree with love
Afraid to tell the truth and now their garden's gone so
Just like anybody, the devil got me too
And now there's nothing I can do
[Chorus:]
Because temptation is comin' onto me, temptation
I'm just too blind to see your sweet temptation
Knockin' at my door, temptation I just got to get some more
The neighbor's wife is pretty and she wants a truth or dare
She justifies adultery as a meaningless affair
Later on that evening, lord she can't believe her eyes
Her old man's cheatin' lover's in a black book of disguise
Just like everybody I got a black book too
Now there's nothing I can do
[Chorus]
The sexy secretary has a twinkle in her eye
She sees a million dollars as the CEO walks by
Business mixed with pleasure and the lawyers will prevail
While the plaintiff and defendant are both going straight to hell
All because a little bit of
[Chorus]
Adam looked at eve she said that apple's lookin' sweet

And now there's nothing I can do

Because temptation is comin' onto me, temptation
I'm just too blind to see your sweet temptation
Knockin' at my door, temptation I just got to get some more
