Closest thing to Heaven
Ten thousand miles into the atmosphere
Closest thing to Heaven, Heaven
Closest thing to Heaven
Look the world right in the eye
Act like a generation
Here we go boys and girls
Sweet as homemade apple pie
Make love your destination
Closest thing to Heaven
Yeah, it's you
Closest thing to Heaven
Give me that ball and chain
Back in our boats again
How do you do it?
Closest thing to Heaven
When one and one and one and one make two
What am I gonna do?
How do you do it?
Dragging your feet again
Closest thing to Heaven
While all the world is sinking
Saved by crumbs for all the starving millions, yeah
I know I'm high because I've captured you
Closest thing to Heaven, Heaven
Who! Hey, yeah
By now it must be hurting
Yeah
Eat the countries that are making billions
My body shakes
Is there a welcome here?
Bath water and the baby
Throw your arms round the world
There's been a lot of drinking
Who! Hey! Hey!
Lookin' at ghosts of you
Just like a beast of burden
