Lyrics

Do they jazzercise in heaven, I know that something you would love

Or is it more like in the Bible, shiny angels float above

Maybe the angels all wear headbands, maybe the angels all get stoned

And they only play the tables so no one ever plays alone


I don't know what to do

You were the only one who made things come true

I don't know what to do, you were the only one


Are there tribal lands in heaven some place that you can call your own

And buy your Mohawk cigarettes and a card for your phone

Well if you could, would you call me, maybe just let it ring

Like when a hawk circles above without beating a wing


I can still hear your harmonies when I sing all the old songs

So you must be up in heaven singing along

But I will not sing no love songs like a love song singing hack

Cause there ain't no love song I can sing that'll ever bring you back
