I went to heaven to get advice
I asked for God but he didn't have time
Hoped I could be happy I could be free
From the gun they keep pointing at me

Cable TV, pills and afterwork
To sleep at night
"Son it's always worse somewhere else"
Oh what a wonderful, wonderful life

Everytime I walk through the main street
Everytime I know
I would rather stay this way baby
Than wave the flag for the bloodsucking blues

I went downstairs just to get well
But I didn't have a soul left to sell

Self-help, pure race, Old Testament
To walk the line
Makes the healthy go insane
Oh what a wonderful, wonderful life

And everytime I walk through the main street
Everytime I know
I would rather stay this way baby
Than wave the flag for the bloodsucking blues

Everytime I walk through the main street
Everytime I know
I would rather stay this way baby
Than wave the flag for the bloodsucking blues
