The The - Everybody Wants to Go to Heaven (But Nobody Wants to Die)

Текст песни

If I’m down in the dumps tonight, well it’s not because of you
Try to look at life objectively, what good does it do
You reached for the telephone, I was out at work in some dance hall
You can’t have everything, sometimes you can’t have anything at all
Everybody wants to get to heaven but nobody wants to die
Everybody wants to get to heaven but nobody wants to die
Felt the heat in my cheeks, went to sleep dreaming of her
Daylight began easing through my window, like a whisper
A conspiratal glance, an untroubled voice, a contrivance
You don’t return my calls anymore, my saviour or my successor
Everybody wants to get to heaven but nobody wants to die
Everybody wants to get to heaven but nobody wants to die
Cries of the night, the times we used to sleep together
Guess I was indignant, grow clumsy at your girlish pleasure
I’ve quietened down a bit, doesn’t mean I like the idea at all
Desperate as I am, my miserable state is just comical
Everybody wants to get to heaven but nobody wants to die
Everybody wants to get to heaven but nobody wants to die
Everybody wants to get to heaven but nobody wants to die
Everybody wants to get to heaven but nobody wants to die
Everybody get to heaven
Everybody’s gettin' to heaven
Everybody get to heaven
