Who can really say what'll happen to us

Maybe it's true after all

That life is a test

In which we're supposed to prove ourselves

Only whoever passes it with an A

May go to heaven

For the whole filthy rest

The hell of rebirth remains

As a tourist in Ibiza

As a traffic cop

As a clown in a circus show

That nobody wants to see

To escape this fate

We're supposed to make an honest effort

Start every day with a prayer

Instead of aspirin

Only whoever always runs straight to the confessional

Like it's a race

And lists all his sins there

Bargains for an acquittal

I don't wanna go to paradise

If the way there is so hard

I'm not filing for asylum

I'll stay here, fine by me

Whoever can hold knife and fork properly

And sits up straight while eating

Whoever always says thanks

Has a decent chance

Whoever obediently lines up everywhere

With polished shoes

Whoever bears their fate with humility

Salvation beckons to them

We're told to listen and pay attention

Do what we're told

Submit and copy

From the first to the last day

Always play nicely by the rules

They've ordered us

As they stand in the book of life

For eternity amen

I don't wanna go to paradise

If the way there is so hard

Who knows if we'll be better off there

Behind that door

I don't wanna go to paradise

If the way there is so hard

And before I beg on my knees

I'll stay here, fine by me

I don't wanna go to paradise

If the way there is so hard

If I'm not allowed in as I am

I'll stay outside the door

I don't wanna go to paradise

If the way there is so hard

I'm not filing for asylum

I'll stay here, fine by me
