No Laughing In Heaven
Gillan

I used to be a sinner, used to have my cake and eat it

They warned me of my fate, but I was quite prepared to meet it

You'll go to Hell they smiled at me

And told me of the roaring fires

But I was happy living wild

And fueling my own desires

I was a wild man

Drinking, smoking and messing around with women

Lots of women

No, not swimming, women

I wanna go to Heaven

The place to be is right up there

I wanna go to Heaven

It's gonna be good so I won't despair

I decided to reform and pray

Beg mercy for my soul

I prayed in church

Threw away my bad habits

Prayed out of church

Adopted an entirely different role

I gave my money to the poor until I was poor

But at least I ensured that I would go up there

Instead of down below to the Inferno

Where the evil flames of desire

Burned higher and higher and higher

I'm gonna go to Heaven

Paid my dues so I'm getting in

I'm gonna go to Heaven

It's looking good if I abstain from sin

I knocked on the pearly gates

Neatly side-stepping the long queue

Waved hi to St. Peter

Who checked my card and let me through

I smiled, threw my hands in the air

Laughed and got arrested

They said hey man, you're in the wrong place

Your behaviour is a disgrace

Here we pray every hour, on the hour

Read extracts from the Bible and look solemn'

What, says I, no party?

No party?

Let me out

Let me out of Heaven

I got it wrong, no I can't stay here

No laughing in Heaven

Let me out, I just can't stay here

Well I ran around in the state of shock and panic

This wan't what I expected

Here was what looked like a bunch of manic depressives

Can I get a transfer, I screamed

But no, once you're in Heaven, you're here for good

The good of your soul, but that's no good for me

If you want to go to Hell you've really got to be bad

Okay, okay, I'll be bad

Too late

What do you mean too late

Too late

No

In the meantime

Let me out of Heaven

I've got it wrong, no I can't stay here

No laughing in Heaven

Oh God, it's awful here

Going crazy in Heaven

Take me out and let me go to hell

No laughing in Heaven

Don't laugh, this place is Hell
