Sinners and saints

Some days I wanna hug the world
Other days I wanna tear it down
Days I’ve wasted and hurled
While on others I’ve worn a crown

There are days when I’m mellow
Days when I wanna rage
Days when I’m a good fellow
Days when I should be in a cage

There are days when I have urges I can’t explain
Negative thoughts that test my will
Powerfull emotions that cause pain
Supressive actions that make me ill

There are days when I wanna break the mould
And be somebody else
Cut loose from the fold
And be a bloody louse

There are days when I have carnal thoughts
Wanna seduce every woman I see
Days when I show all of my warts
The other side of me

Days when I’d like to get drunk
Go out and commit a sin
Act like a real fucking punk
And kick someone in the shin

Days when I wanna suck in all of life
And get high as a kite
Get into trouble and strife
And forget I have a wife

Days when I wanna forget what’s right
Do everything wrong
Sing a different song
And not really belong

But lo and behold!...there are days when things go my way
When you never hear me moan
And I have only positive things to say
Days when I reap some of the goodness I’ve sown

Days when I feel uplifted
When I’m inspired to create
Days when I feel special and gifted
And have no time for hate

Days when I feel at peace with myself
When I show a friend I care
Days when I’m in good health
And have love to share

Yes!... there are those days when I feel like a real saint
With God as my guide
But lo and behold!... there are more days when I aint
When I feel like a real sinner, with the devil by my side.
