lyrics

Hey hey for the money, and all the pretty things,
Lucifer never looked so good, setting down his wings.

Your legs are a ladder, they climb what they can see,
And they're coming in on the mountain of a happy memory

I know you slept in heaven, I can see it in your face, yeah…

If it left a trace on you, it depends on you, depends on you.

Hey now if you're alright, tell me what's for sure,
Probably an approximation of something you adore.
But these words are a pretext, just you wait and see,
Baby I got no misery, it's just not for me,

While you read int he lamplight, pessimists piss in the rain,
Looks like there's nobody to blame…

But I like you for this job…

But I like you for this job…

So now if you're alright, tell me what you see,
Is it nest is it Nazareth, is it misery,
Cuz these words are a pretext, for what you got in store,
Baby I got no misery, it's just not what I'm for,

Cuz I know you slept in heaven, I can see it in your face, yeah,
If it left a trace on you it depends on you, depends on you,
These words are a pretext, and your eyes are little walls,
Don't sleep in heaven baby,
Cuz everybody crawls…
