Paul Simon - The Afterlife Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • After I died, and the make up had dried, I went back to my place.
  • No moon that night, but a heavenly light shone on my face.
  • Still I thought it was odd, there was no sign of God just to usher me in.
  • Then a voice from above, sugar coated with Love, said, "Let us begin".
  • You got to fill out a form first, and then you wait in the line.
  • You got to fill out a form first, and then you wait in the line.
  • OK, a new kid in school, got to follow the rule, you got to learn the routine.
  • Woah, there's a girl over there, with the sunshiny hair, like a homecomin' queen.
  • I said, "Hey, what you say? It's a glorious day, by the way how long you been dead?"
  • Maybe you, maybe me, maybe baby makes three, but she just shook her head...
  • You got to fill out a form first, and then you wait in the line.
  • You got to fill out a form first, and then you wait in the line.
  • Buddha and Moses and all the noses from narrow to flat,
  • Had to stand in the line, just to glimpse the divine, what you think about that?
  • Well it seems like our fate to suffer and wait for the knowledge we seek.
  • It's all his design, no one cuts in the line, no one here likes a sneak
  • You got to fill out a form first, and then you wait in the line.
  • You got to fill out a form first, and then you wait in the line.
  • After you climb, up the ladder of time, the Lord God is here.
  • Face to face, in the vastness of space, your words disappear.
  • And you feel like swimming in an ocean of love, and the current is strong.
  • But all that remains when you try to explain is a fragment of song...
  • Lord is it, Be Bop A Lu La or Ooh Poppa Do
  • Lord, Be Bop A Lu La or Ooh Poppa Do
  • Be Bop A Lu La
