lyrics

In my backyard Babel
I built a tower out of milk-crates and mud
but when I got to heaven Ned Kelly couldn't understand me
through his dumb hat.

They're launching metal into the air
I've seen Johnny Cash leave the sky to tell them
its not 1957 anymore and
you don't have to shoot a man to watch him die.

I've left my money behind
though I imagine its weird for the rich.
For those buried underneath pyramids to meet those who
died moving bricks

God helped me with a loan:
the property market here just crashed.
Its all interest-free but God doesn't see all the
debt that I've left behind.

Time is just a thing and look through it to see myself:
a boy becoming a man.
Looking at myself to realize I cant wait to
monetize all my personality traits.

I've been in heaven for a week.
No-one has judged me yet.
Most people here are pretty young and overall pretty
grateful to be dead.
