Confessional songs

Posted by wrydied

Two of my favorite songs are Buenos Tardes Amigo by Ween and The Mercy Seat by the Birthday Party. Are there any other songs like these in which the singer denies but ultimately confesses to a crime or misdeed?

There isn't really the denial part, but Once Upon A Time At A Texaco by Amigo The Devil for sure. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1BOSNHtioY&pp=ygUqYW1pZ28gdGhlIGRldmlsIG9uY2UgdXBvbiBhIHRpbWUgYXQgdGV4YWNv
