Sheep Go to Heaven Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm not feeling alright today, I'm not feeling that great
I'm not catching on fire today, love has started to fade
I'm not going to smile today, I'm not gonna laugh
You're out living it up today, I've got dues to pay
[Pre-Chorus]
And the grave-digger puts on the forceps
The stonemason does all the work
The barber can give you a haircut
The carpenter can take you out to lunch
Now, but I just want to play on my pan-pipes
I just want to drink me some wine
As soon as you're born you start dyin'
So you might as well have a good time, oh no
[Chorus]
Sheep go to Heaven, goats go to Hell
Sheep go to Heaven, goats go to Hell
[Post-Chorus]
Oh no, ah yeah, alright
Yeah, ho!
Nah, nah, ya
[Verse 2]
I don't wanna go to Sunset Strip, I don't wanna feel the emptiness
Bold marquees with stupid band names, I don't wanna go to Sunset Strip
I don't wanna go to Sunset Strip, I don't wanna feel the emptiness
Bold marquees with stupid band names, I don't wanna go to Sunset Strip
I'm not feeling alright today, I'm not feeling that great
I'm not catching on fire today, love has started to fade
I'm not going to smile today, I'm not gonna laugh
You're out living it up today, I've got dues to pay
[Pre-Chorus]
And the grave-digger puts on the forceps
The stonemason does all the work
The barber can give you a haircut
The carpenter can take you out to lunch
Now, but I just want to play on my pan-pipes
I just want to drink me some wine
As soon as you're born you start dyin'
So you might as well have a good time, oh no
[Chorus]
Sheep go to Heaven, goats go to Hell
Sheep go to Heaven, goats go to Hell
[Post-Chorus]
Oh no, ah yeah, alright
Yeah, ho!
Nah, nah, ya
[Verse 2]
I don't wanna go to Sunset Strip, I don't wanna feel the emptiness
Bold marquees with stupid band names, I don't wanna go to Sunset Strip
I don't wanna go to Sunset Strip, I don't wanna feel the emptiness
Bold marquees with stupid band names, I don't wanna go to Sunset Strip
[Instrumental Break]
[Interlude]
(Hey! Two, three, four!)
(Hey!)
[Pre-Chorus]
And the grave-digger puts on the forceps
The stonemason does all the work
The barber can give you a haircut
The carpenter can take you out to lunch
Now, but I just want to play on my pan-pipes
I just want to drink me some wine
As soon as you're born you start dyin'
So you might as well have a good time, oh no
[Chorus]
Sheep go to Heaven, goats go to Hell
Sheep go to Heaven, goats go to Hell
Alright
Oh no, oh no
[Outro]
Sheep go to Heaven, goats go to Hell
Sheep go to Heaven, goats go to Hell
Go to Hell (Sheep go to Heaven) go to Hell (Goats go to Hell)
Go to Hell (Sheep go to Heaven) go to Hell (Goats go to Hell)
Oh no, go to Hell (Sheep go to Heaven) go to Hell (Goats go to Hell)

I just want to drink me some wine
As soon as you're born you start dyin'
So you might as well have a good time, oh no

Sheep go to Heaven, goats go to Hell
Sheep go to Heaven, goats go to Hell

About
Genius Annotation
“Sheep Go to Heaven” is an extension of the message and symbolism in the biblical parable “The Sheep and the Goats” (Matthew 25:31–46).
32 Before him all the nations will be gathered, and he will separate them one from another, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33 He will set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left. 34 Then the King will tell those on his right hand, ‘Come, blessed of my Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world
[…]
41 Then he will say also to those on the left hand, ‘Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire which is prepared for the devil and his angels
