Lyrics

Rats In Heaven

They found some rats in heaven
They swear they won?t survive
All the trumpets and the singing---
The faith is still alive.

So they scatter into hiding
To escape the sunday crowds
They can melt into the pavement
Where they sleep beneath the clouds

But all the saved pretend they don?t exist
And laugh the night away
And all the saved believe that they?ve been blessed
And spend the night away

Safe behind the gates of heaven
They all try to look their best
But in heaven there?s no touching
So there?s nothing to confess

And all the saved pretend they don?t exist
And laugh the night away
And all the saved believe that they?ve been blessed
And spend the night away

The rats are still in heaven
I know that they survive
In spite of all the hatred
Their faith is still alive.
