Pearly Gate Crashers

I died one night quite peacefully
 Oh lying in my sleep
 I prayed the lord the lordy lord
 I prayed the lord my soul to keep
 I wandered through the clouds
 And much to my surprise
 I saw before the pearly gates
 A mob of souls with wild eyes
 Boozehounds, and housewives
 Some rich and some poor
 A tea party of vagrants
 Knocking at the door
 Like
 Knock knock knock!
 knocking at the door
 Oh
 Knock knock knock!
 Knocking at the door
 And there he is! there he is!
 God in all his glory
 Sitting on his throne of our broken human stories
 There he is, and he said:
 "I'm not lettin you in,
 You're a race of broken cages
 Filled with shame and sin"
 And all the old ladies sing
 "If you don't let me in to heaven, I'll just burn it down
 Cause I've done my time in hell
 If you don't let me in to heaven, I'll just burn it down
 Oh yeah, I may be human
 But that's not on me thats on you man
 Yeah, I may be human
 But that's not on me thats on you man "
 On this side of heaven
 There are many pretty souls
 Who worked a life night and day
 Only to pray their way
 Into a place, where God says
 "Oh go to hell, I wish you well,
 I wish you well but go to hell
 I wish you well "
 And sneaking through the side door
 I saw many suited snakes
 Making shady deals with angels
 To get into the pearly gates
 Like
 There he is! there he is!
 God in all his glory
 Sitting on his throne of our broken human stories
 There he is
 Hiding in his castle
 Who has the nerve to create life
 And then call it a hassle
 And all the old ladies sing
 "If you don't let me in to heaven, I'll just burn it down
 Cause I've done my time in hell
 If you don't let me in to heaven, I'll just burn it down
 Cause I've done my time in hell
 Oh my time in hell
 Oh yeah, I may be human
 But that's not on me thats on you man
 Yeah, I may be human
 But that's not on me thats on you man "
