Penthouse in heaven

There goes the old neighbourhood

There goes the good old neighbourhood

Jesus won't drive nothing but a shiny white Mercedes

And all the angels gotta settle for second hand oldsmobiles

    G           F               Eb              D
The virgin Mary loses faith and starts a chain-reaction

    Ab                     Eb      Bb                  C
The Lord just stands there weepin' bitter tears in the rain

Almost if the bad guys got the good guys on the run

Bb                 F                                   C
All in the line of expectation in the eyes of the evil one

Like a mad bull chargin' through a closet of porcelain 'made in China'

Ab              Eb             Bb                 C
Saddlin' up the righteous with nightmares full of trauma!

Eb
There's no one here

There's nothing left

Db                     C
No one here to kiss or bless

This damp and dark unholy mess

You could say: Paradise in Distress!

The sun just can't stop waiting

   Bb
To put a shine on a clear blue sky

            F             C
And kill the pessimist in me
Meanwhile...
Eb
There's no one here

No one here to kiss or bless
