Heaven

Heaven ain't got no stairway, Heaven ain't got no ghetto

Heaven ain't got nothin' to do with you, 'cause you a devil

Heaven ain't got no stairs, Heaven ain't got no ghetto

Heaven ain't got nothin' to do with you, 'cause you a devil

Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name, Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, on Earth as it is in Heaven

Give us this day our daily bread

They led me up to the Pearly Gates and said, "What's up?"

Then the Gates shut, now I'm stuck

Rotting in a stinking hole 300 months

Then the Devil turned to me and said "It's me you want

I can give you all the power over anyone

Put it this way: you want new life, I'll give you one

Have faith in me, I'm only being genuine"

I contemplated, could it be he ran a planet

Or was banished, the blood dripped from his bandish

Just outlandish, I still didn't overstand it

I took a long look in his eyes and he vanished

Heaven ain't got no stairway, Heaven ain't got no ghetto

Heaven ain't got nothin' to do with you, 'cause you a devil

Heaven ain't got no stairs, Heaven ain't got no ghetto

Heaven ain't got nothin' to do with me, 'cause I'm a rebel

Heaven ain't got no stairway, Heaven ain't got no ghetto

Heaven ain't got nothin' to do with you, 'cause you a devil

Heaven ain't got no stairs, Heaven ain't got no ghetto

Heaven ain't got nothin' to do with me, 'cause I'm a rebel

Heavenly bodies lined up at the gate

Wind up in purgatory, story of your own fate

Not one person dressed in white

It's a curse or plight, best of life, worst of death, burst of light

As the lost angels descended down to the ground

From a mist of clouds, standing amongst the foul

Was [?], universal order now

The borders crowd, the souls are sorted out somehow

I hear the violins and said, "Let's try again"

I took the side again, I looked into his eye again

And he was frying in the pit that he was lying in

I held my head down, said I didn't wanna die again

Heaven ain't got no stairway, Heaven ain't got no ghetto

Heaven ain't got nothin' to do with you, 'cause you a devil

Heaven ain't got no stairs, Heaven ain't got no ghetto

Heaven ain't got nothin' to do with me, 'cause I'm a rebel

Heaven ain't got no stairway, Heaven ain't got no ghetto

Heaven ain't got nothin' to do with you, 'cause you a devil

Heaven ain't got no stairs, Heaven ain't got no ghetto

Heaven ain't got nothin' to do with me, 'cause I'm a rebel
