Angel
Sarah Slean - Universe
i bought my angel on the fourth of julyi didn't plan it, it just happened that way
i guess fate stepped in again
‘cause i needed him then
when i bought him they said are you sure
no refunds returns or exchanges because
once he's yours he's yours for good
now you behave like an angel should
‘cause i saw it on tv
they were selling pieces of heaven
and i thought hey what about me
when am i considered
i chained my angel to the eavestrough
it was november and i think i pissed him off
he's mad but i don't care
you're my angel so there
i figure it's only about sixty more years
so come on angel stop all the tears
come sing me a song or two
whatever it is you angels do
‘cause i saw it on tv
they were selling pieces of heaven
and i thought hey what about me
when can i make reservations
my pet angel's got a long lost friend
he says he's coming back when the world ends
when us humans have lost our touch
god never liked people that much
‘cause i saw it on tv
they were selling pieces of heaven
and i thought well how can this be
what in hell are they thinking
