I met a priest At the pearly gates He said, “I should be excited But I don't feel that great” I made a joke about communion How it must have been something he ate
You work your life To get to a place Then when you get there You can't remember why you came It could be Heaven It could be a pool in Pacific Palisades
I never liked the Bible that much But I liked helping people And thе Bible was A pretty good crutch Yeah, thе congregation looks at you With so much trust
You had a vision you were chosen What if it's you who chose yourself? There are some things that go unspoken There are some things that must be felt
We met a learned man And boy did he hate Waiting in line with a singer And a priest looking lost in the face Heaven's a good debate Somebody wins and somebody else feels ashamed
So we walked up To Saint Peter to say “Is there a god in Heaven?” “No God's down there in the everyday If you give up looking God's beneath that thing you can't explain”
So we waltzed right through Heaven's gate There was a saltwater pool And a catered area backstage But between me and you We took the elevator back down to the everyday Yeah between me and you I guess it was an escalator Back down to the everydayTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
