Could you spare me please If only just one day Let me off my knees 'Cos underneath these clothes I have a heart that beats I'm not just flesh and bone
But go on, take me lower if you're able Kick me while I'm already down While you sweep your dirt underneath the table You know I'm not the only sinner in this town
So go on, throw the first stone Come on, get the last word 'Cos it won't be the first time I've been on my own
'Cos if you think you're perfect If you've never been blessed If you've never felt alone Go on, throw the first stone
Tell me what it takes For me to make you see That you made your own mistakes Is this your way to work through The fact that you're a lot like me And I'm a lot like you
Go on, take me lower if you're able Kick me while I'm already down While you sweep your dirt underneath the table You know I'm not the only sinner in this town
So go on, throw the first stone Come on, get the last word 'Cos it won't be the first time I've been on my own
'Cos if you think you're perfect If you've never been blessed If you've never felt alone Then go on, throw the first stone
And I guess you won't be happy till I bleed And I guess somehow that gives you what you need
Is there no one else that you can patronise Maybe someone your own size
So go on, throw the first stone Come on, get the last word 'Cos it won't be the first time I've been on my own
And if you think you're perfect If you've never been blessed If you've never felt so alone Then go on, throw the first stone
