The hand of temptation fits like a glove
No one to take heed, just the voice from above
Can you say no, or will your resistance resign
Urge just too much, have you the strength to decline
You know that it’s wrong, this thing that you’re doing
But have you the inner strength to stop you pursuing
At the point of decision there’s no going back
Make your choice, do you resist or do you crack
Just your inner conscience to stop you right now
This thing that you’re doing you can’t disavow
Only your conscience and a voice from above
Will shake off this temptation that fit’s like a glove
