Lyrics Terence Trent D'Arby

Terence Trent D'Arby

If You All Get To Heaven

If you all get to Heaven

Say a prayer for my mother

Say a prayer for my father

Say a prayer for my brother

But most of all please say a prayer for me

Words of a feather

All flock together

Going round and round

A soul is astral travelling

Watching human motion

Wasting thy seed upon the ground

Discreet intermissions

Coroners petitions

Their work goes into the sand

Voices from the middle

Are gaining very little

It's getting all out of hand

If you all get to Heaven

Say a prayer -volace menteh-

Say a prayer for food and plenty

Say a prayer -sehr sensible-

But most of all please say a prayer for me

If you all get to Heaven

Say a prayer for my camel

As I ride through the desert

Say a prayer for the rumours

The rumours of war

The last moody summer

Was autumn in covers

Bespeaks of dogs in the dark

A perfect reunion

Of bloody communion

Where do we find

Noah's ark?

A thousand words or more

Seep through the floor

And then take root in the soil

Growing trees of doubt

Helpless people shout

Until their blood starts to boil

If you all get to Heaven

Say a prayer for Asmodeus

Say a prayer for Belial

Say a prayer for his denial

But most of all you gotta say a prayer for me

If you all get to Heaven

Say a prayer for St. Religion

Say a prayer for blood baptism

Say a prayer for it's division

But most of all please say a prayer for me

Old men's cigars puff up the wars

To protect their fuck-ups again

Young men must die!

To keep the old ones alive

And to prove they're studs once again

It you all get to Heaven

Say a prayer for the people

Who will kill for cross and steeple

Say a prayer for righteous bullets

But most of all please say a prayer for me

If you all get to Heaven

Say a prayer for my mother

Say a prayer for my father

Say a prayer for my brother

But most of all you gotta say a prayer for me
