Terence Trent D'arby - If You All Get To Heaven lyrics

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 f**-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 k** 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
