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 traveling 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 rumors
The rumors 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 fuck-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 kill for cross and steeple
Say a prayer for righteous bullets
But most of all please say a prayer for me, 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

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
