lyrics

Blood and dirt was everywhere as I made my way on up the stairs
and when I reached those pearly gates
I made sure I stood nice and straight
And once I started feeling well I asked God not to send me to hell
He laughed and said you're just like everyone else
Only thinking 'bout yourself

So don't you dare talk back to me
I've got a glass eyeball and two bad knees
and my patience is wearing thin
So where should we begin?

He said, you never paid your rent on time
wasted half your life doin lines
and I remember when you could've helped that bum
instead you bought some rum
Oh and the reminds me you drank too much
You had a couple nights end up in cuffs
Now tell me why I shouldn't send you down in flames?
I said, don't you think I've felt enough pain?

A crooked smile dawned on his face
He said, I've spent eternity in this place
You've felt nothing worse than aches, I have a body that never breaks
It was then he let me take his place
I felt the weight of time and space
He said son now there's nothing left to do
I'm the universe and so are you
