This track is built on a sample of the titular line from the Karlins song, “Everybody wants to go to heaven, but nobody wants to die”, which is played back rhythmically along with camera shutter noises.
[Verse 1]
I got a call from the stars
I told the stars it was wrong
They said a comet was gonna be coming
[?]
[Verse 2]
I got my life in the can
And it didn't mean shite
And then the thought hit me
Even celluloid dies
So I fell down low
And I wanted to die
And my only acquaintances
Were cowards and liars
[Verse 3]
Then I got a kick from the floor
Sent me right through the roof
I heard a sound from the stars
And I knew it was true
Now I use people up
And I throw them away
And I don't care for anyone
Least of all me, it's great
[Verse 4]
I'm gonna go so fast
That I won't have a past
I'm gonna go so high
I'm gonna look down my nose at the sky
I'm gonna stop off at heaven
For a quick celestial [?]
If I see that old bloke you all love so much
I'll tell him you sent your regards
[Verse 5]
I'm gonna go to the sun
[?] burn it right up
[?]
[?]
When I get to the top
And I start to fall back
The world has spat its shit down on me far too long
I wanna spit down harder than it back
[Outro]
Bye bye
We must fly
