Lyrics
Here lies Charlie
You can tell it's him 'cause we put his name on the stone
He kept his showers ice cold, used eco-friendly light bulbs
Rode his bicycle to work when the gasoline price rose
He'd judge with no pretense, fish on the weekends
Each morning get up, do the Pledge of Allegiance
Never swim in the ocean for fear of shark attacks
Bi-monthly get his wiper rows with a card attached
Avoiding all the little things that were hard to ask
Had a car crash, cardiac arrest, died of a heart attack
Golden escalator
All his friends and neighbors huddled there in prayer
Around the respirator
"Catch you later, I'm off to see the man upstairs
They all look like ants from here, stars and crystal chandeliers"
There was an angel at the entrance checking off a guest list
Charlie wasn't on it and was ushered to the exit
His heart sank, he was breathless
"Excuse me, sir, there must be someone you confused me for
If I could see someone who knew me or someone in uniform
I go to church on Sunday, truly usually more"
Screaming at the angels while they push him through the door
"Excuse me, sir, there must be someone you confused me for
If I could see someone who knew me or someone in uniform
I go to church on Sunday, truly usually more"
Screaming at the angels while they push him through the door
"Abandon all hope, all ye who enter"
It was a horrifying sight but sounded like a neat adventure
Far beyond the halos and the castles in the clouds
Fatsos squealing shackles with some apples in their mouths
Attention whores in padded bras hanging from extension cords
Tauted with their products from their favorite catalogs
"Here we buy and sell a million kinds of hell
Imagination is the limit to the devil's clientele"
Off the dingy elevator
No televised debate or savior saves you from the hell you paid for
Sorry buddy, smell you later
He sidestepped fate, went right for the gate
But you know the devil, he loves a good chase
There was a demon at the entrance making X's on a checklist
He would kick you in the ass when you begged him for repentance
Those tempted by the senses with the cruelest of intentions
Charlie's heart sank, he was breathless
"Excuse me, sir, there must be someone you confused me for
If I could see someone who knew me or someone in uniform
I really don't belong here, I know you've heard the tune before"
Screaming at the demons while they push him through the door
"Excuse me, sir, there must be someone you confused me for
If I could see someone who knew me or someone in uniform
I really don't belong here, I know you've heard the tune before"
Screaming at the demons while they push him through the door
You can run from your demons until you are exhausted
One day you will have to stop and find out what they want
Keep on running from those demons 'til you are exhausted
You can run to those angels 'til you are exhausted
One day you will have to stop and question what they want
Keep on running to those angels 'til you are exhausted
"Excuse me, sir, there must be someone you confused me for
If I could see someone who knew me or someone in uniform
I really don't belong here, I know you've heard the tune before"
(I don't want to die)
"Excuse me, sir, there must be someone you confused me for
If I could see someone who knew me or someone in uniform
I really don't belong here, I know you've heard the tune before"
(Please don't let me die)
