Letra

A woman goes to heaven
It's not important when
'Cause as soon as she arrives
God has to send her down again
You got an extra five years
To clean up after men
I mean no disrespect, God
But you better make it ten
Well if heaven's an improvement
Won't mind the extra squeeze
I've got a few more birds down there
After losing bees
Try to lose the bees
So don't be shocked to queue jumps
Or who just calmly waits
There's certain type of behaviour
The guest list just creates
No time for lively discussion
No time for televised debates
The well meaning soon become well meant
It's the hot sell of hell at the gates
The gates
Alcoholic finds himself outside the pearly gates
I've only got one worry God, a few outstanding slates
Any time you used to have's been passed to so-called mates
And after they're paid up they're off
To the land of empty crates
Heaven is a glass neither half empty nor half full
So do us all a favour God
And give that thing a pull
Give that thing a pull
So don't be shocked to queue jumps
Or who just calmly waits
There's certain type of behaviour
The guest list just creates
No time for lively discussion
No time for televised debates
The well meaning soon become well meant
It's the hot sell of hell at the gates
The gates
Model turns up hours late he had to get a ride
You gonna look cool in heaven wear something more than white
Vanity's close to arrogance just slightly more polite
Fashion show or jumble sale at a slightly different height
A slightly different height
So don't be shocked to queue jumps
Or who just calmly waits
There's certain type of behaviour
The guest list just creates
No time for lively discussion
No time for televised debates
The well meaning soon become well meant
It's the hot sell of hell at the gates
The gates
The gates
The gates
