Beyond the rules of religion The cloth of conviction Above all the competition Where fact and fiction meet There's no color lines cast or classes There's no fooling the masses Whatever faith you practice Whatever you believe Oh heaven, heaven What the heck is heaven? Is there a home for the homeless? Is there hope for the hopeless? Throw away your misconceptions There's no walls around heaven No codes you gotta know to get in No minutemen or border patrol You must lose your earthly possessions Leave behind your weapons You can't buy your salvation And there is no pot of gold Heaven, heaven What the heck is heaven? Is there a home for the homeless Is there hope for the hopeless? Heaven ain't got no prisons No government no business No banks or politicians No armies and no police Castles and cathedrals crumble Pyramids and pipelines tumble Failure keeps you humble Leads us closer to peace Oh, oh heaven, heaven What the heck is heaven? Is there a home for the homeless? Is there hope for the hopeless? Is there hope for the hopeless?
