Lyrics
Heaven On A Stick
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We just want a bit of peace
And relative quiet
Just one batsman at the crease
If we could just buy it
We never wanted interruptions
Never want to run away
We just want some Summer's day
Lazin' in the backyard
All browbeaters go away
It's not much to ask
Never wanted intervention
Never want to run away
Chorus ~
All God's children say
What did they say
They just want heaven on a stick
All God's children say
What did they say
They just want heaven on a stick
We don't need opinion sways
Nowhere to run
Just wanna see those blue green bays
Stand in the sun
Never wanted mediation
Never want to run away
Chorus ~ x 2
We just wanted lotus eating
We just want to fish for cray
We never wanted intervention
We never want to run away
Chorus ~ x 2
