Utopia Songtext

Verse 1: I'm not aware that I'm not there but over here I've lived my life now I'm dead. I've got nothing to fear I'm living large, yes I am, but we're all the same I don't know you yet I know you 'cause I know your name In this world everybody's equal Live this life, the next is the sequel It's as good as I always thought and wished it would be Millionaires and princesses in my neighbourhood I'm as wealthy as the next man, yes, you and me It's all good - no jealousy or envy People sharing all the things they wouldn't share before 'N fighting for your rights a right you'd never fight no more One religion One god for every race and creed No more wars No more hurting there's no need to bleed Strangers walking hand in hand, we're not afraid to care 'N children playing in the streets without a single fear Lovin' one another's something we only seem to know Life in the fast lane but only nice and slow Only the good are here, the young, the old, the rich, the poor And we're all family now, rejoicing as we meet once more Everybody looks young and at their prime again No stress - no suffering - no tension - no pain Hell ain't no nice place to be, Amen 'Cause if you really ain't bad, ha-hah!, you'll know it then Verse 2: There is no need for ten commandments now Because no-one believes they're holier-than-thou Thou shalt not kill doesn't come into play And every single day's the Sabbath so we keep it holy Better to reign in Heaven than to serve in Hell Drinking wine with the Lord from the Holy Grail The good has been seperated from the evil No temptation now 'cause the Devil cannot cast his spell Verse 3: I'm flying high in the sky like a 747 The best place to be is definitely Heaven There's no crime There's no sin There's no death So there's definitely no next of kin I don't know what it's like to be jealous of a next man's things I don't know what it's like the hatred that jealousy brings It's all good in the 'hood and everybody knows this We're not afraid to greet each other with a kiss Life goes on after you've passed away There's no reason for no treason only time to play Live the life you love 'n love the life 'n live it well Damnation to all those who die under the spell One thing I promise you do not be afraid If you've loved your life according to how you'll make the grade I can fly like an angel 'cause I've got my wings I can join the dawn chorus 'cause every angel sings So I guess I'm an angel 'cause I'm not in Hell I didn't visit limbo long, no, I didn't dwell And I sometimes wonder why I was afraid to die It's a breath of fresh air to live without a lie If you've got nothing to fear then it's time to go On a wing and a prayer go with the flow Hell ain't no nice place to be, Amen 'Cause if you really ain't bad, Ha-hah!, you'll know it then.
