[00:24.16]If heaven was a mile away
[00:25.29]
[00:26.42]Would I pack up my bags
[00:28.10]And leave this world behind
[00:29.35]
[00:30.16]If heaven was a mile away

[01:18.34]Would a fiend even want to get high
[01:19.84]Would he stop smoking
[01:20.83]If he knew on his own two feet he could just stroll in
[01:24.27]To get away and escape from the craziness
[01:26.95]And I bet you there's a heaven for an atheist

[03:01.45]Preachers touching on altar boys
[03:02.64]Sodomizing not realizing
[03:04.45]God is watching before the Lord
