WHOSE HEAVEN IS THIS?

Words and Music by The Coyote

Hold on for just a minute, I've got something to say
Yes I realize I'm a dreadful sight in your conservative eyes
My long hair and California attitude, must make you want to curl up and die
But I'm not the evil you fear, your prayers won't make me go away
You don't have to agree, you don't have to buy what I say
Just open up your teeny eyes, you may even learn to empathize
Being free, happy with love, this smile of mine fights a lot of vicious eyes
Deciding and choosing what to do in Heaven each and every day

Pardon me, is this your world?
Did I break one of your God given rules?
Whose Heaven is this? Yours or mine?
The Church of Saints or Church of Fools?

Hold on just a minute, I've got something to say
These handcuffs are really hurting my wrists, this blindfold cuts my eyes
Perhaps you'll reconsider, I'm an expensive pet to feed
I'm sure you mean well, you can keep your Hell, I just want to leave

Pardon me, is this your world?
Did I break on of your God given rules?
Whose Heaven is this?
Yours or mine?
The Church of Saints or Church of Fools?

SOLO:

Pardon me, is this your world?
Did I break one of your God given rules?
Whose Heaven is this?
Yours or mine?
The Church of Saints or Church of Fools?
