[Verse 1]
She had a bad childhood while she was young
So don't judge her too badly
She had a schizophrenic mother whose worked in the gutter
Woulda sold herself to the devil gladly
[Chorus]
What a sad environment, a bug-ridden tenement
The neighbours looked on sadly
And the stone's been cast and blood is thicker than water
And the sins of a family fall on the daughter
And the sins of a family fall on the daughter
[Verse 2]
At the age of sixteen she had been around
More than any girl over thirty
And all the high IQs who condemned her knew
She was the product of poor heredity
[Chorus]
It's a fictitious fact when you fall on your back
You can backtrack failure without exception
And the stone's been cast and blood is thicker than water
And the sins of a family fall on the daughter
And the sins of a family fall on the daughter
[Verse 3]
Oh the devil is open to all of us
And he selects just a precious few
And it takes some inside pull
To get Gabriel to make an angel out of you
[Chorus]
You can't live a lot and expect paradise
You gotta pay the price like you oughta
The stone's been cast and blood is thicker than water
And the sins of a family fall on the daughter
And the sins of a family fall on the daughter
