Gaoler's Daughter - St. Peter lyrics

[Verse 1] It will be far too late When you're standing at the gate Waiting To see where the ax drops When the big wheel stops Spinning And your skin will turn blue As you quake in your shoes and pray That it's full down there or he's having a good day [Chorus] Everything you've down will come around Even when you're lowered into the ground So I just smile cause I know where you'll be found 'Cause everything you've down will come around [Verse 2] He'll read from the telegram Sent by the big man Up high Of everything you've done wrong And the list is very long You cry Is this gonna take all night I've got some wrongs to make right You see He'll say "we've got plenty of time You can never leave" [Chorus x2] [Outro] I wish I could be there when St. Peter Be there when St. Peter shakes his head And says no And says no
