Lyrics
DON’T WANT TO DIE
Lyrics by Peter Merz
Music by Chas Evans
We’ve got a conscience
Clean as Ananias and Sapphira
Living in-between
Ancient Sardis and New Thyatira
Gonna do what it takes
So we can give ourselves the edge
As we cross our fingers
Smirking with pride we take the pledge
CHORUS
And we all want to go to heaven
But we don’t want to die
Oh, we don’t mind a little leaven
‘Cause we’ve learned to lie
Gotta have that extra percent of hype
Yeh, hide it, then hype it!
As long as we don’t have to pay the price
Buy low and sell high!
We all want to go to heaven
But we don’t want to die
We’re ‘bout as righteous
As Ahab and don’t forget Jezebel
We’re warm and gentle
As Cain caught in a brotherly quarrel
We lift our hands up high
To God, putting on an show of praise
But with our sinners’ lips
His holy Name we profane and shame
REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE
No, we ain’t Elisha
(Not even close)
And we sure ain’t Elijah
(But we still boast)
Full of it as Nebuchadnezzar
Faithful as a Nazarite with a Gillette Razor
INSTRUMENTAL SOLO
REPEAT CHORUS
TAG
We keep running from crucifixion
‘Cause we don’t want to die
We keep shunning pure conviction
‘Cause we don’t wanna…. don’t wanna die
Don’t wanna die…
