A Place in Heaven (Prince vocal) Songtext
von Prince

She wants a place in heaven
But she cannot face the truth
She lives on a rope of self-pity
It only requires a noose

Why are the ones so afraid to live
Much more afraid to die?
It′s as easy to imagine laughing
When you really hear a cry


And they sound the same in hell, they sound the same
You want a place in heaven
Maybe you're already there
Life′s what you make it, stop whining baby
Love comes to those who care

There must be children in heaven
Ones who know nothing from hate
Three year-old leaders of all colors
I'd feel safer with them in control, control, control, control
Three year-olds in control

We all want a place in heaven
Suites of that level are few
Let's not be lazy, there′s no room service
It′s all up to me and you
Let's not be lazy, there′s no room service
It's all up to me and you
