Sneakin' Into Heaven |
| City sidewalk, bright Saturday morning |
| Beggar with a halo shuffles up to me |
| He asks me for a coin, and mumbles |
| «Thank you, and God bless you» |
| Good deeds and halos, not sure what I believe |
| He asks me, «Is there something I can give back to you? |
| How 'bout this halo for an hour or two?» |
| And now I’m |
| Sneakin' into heaven with a borrowed halo |
| Hopin' no one notices my broken wings |
| Peekin' through these gates and thinkin', Lord have mercy |
| I’m never gonna make it if it’s up to me |
| 'Postle Peter, taps me on my shoulder |
| Says, «Son, are you lost?» |
| I say, «Can you show me around?» |
| «Well, I’d be glad too |
| Tell me, what brings you to heaven today?» |
| «I've always wondered what the fuss is all about» |
| I feel like a kid flashin' a fake I. D |
| Tryin' to slip past the Authority |
| And now I’m |
| Sneakin' into heaven with a borrowed halo |
| Hoping no one notices my broken wings |
| Peekin? |
| through these gates and thinkin', Lord have mercy |
| I’m never gonna make it if it’s up to me! |
| Hey Mr. Pedro, I have a little confession |
| I don’t belong here, and this halo isn’t mine |
| Peter laughs and says |
| «Well, boy, haven’t you noticed? |
| We’ve all been broken, but now we’re doin' just fine |
| 'Cause nobody’s good enough |
| And up here we’re all the same |
| We all get to heaven under someone else’s name!" |
| Sneakin' into heaven with a borrowed halo |
| Hoping no one notices my broken wings |
| Peekin? |
| through these gates and thinkin', Lord have mercy |
| I’m never gonna make it if it’s up to me! |
