Heaven Sent, Hell Rejected REvisedV3

(Verse 1) The Pearly Gates, they shimmered in the fading light St. Peter checked his list, said, "Sorry, son, not tonight." I said, "I've walked a thousand miles, I've got no place to go. There must be some mistake, sir, you gotta let me in, you know?" He just shook his head and pointed to the book of names Said, "Your name ain't written here, kid, and it's a crying shame." I looked down at my feet, all scuffed and worn and bare Then turned my back on heaven, with its cold and silent stare. (Chorus) So I went down, down, down thru the fire and the brimstone Thought I'd find a welcome on that dark and dusty throne I gave the gates a rattle, gave a little knock The devil peeked out, said, "Who's that bangin' on my lock?" He took one look at me, his face went white as paste Slammed the door and shouted, "Get you gone and leave this place! We got enough trouble here, we don't need none of your kind!" I'm the only soul alive that hell is scared to find. (Verse 2) I stood there in the sulphur, just a-kickin' at the stones I heard a whimperin' and a cryin' from down among the bones The devil's through the keyhole, he was shakin' in his boots Said, "You got no pitchfork, son, you ain't wearin' no red suits!" "I don't know what you are," he said, his voice a shaky mess "But the look within your eyes is more than the darkness I possess." "I'm just a lonely boy, I said, been turned away upstairs." He said, "That might be true, kid, but you're givin' ME the scares!" (Chorus) So I went down, down, down to the fire and the brimstone Thought I'd find a welcome on that dark and dusty throne I gave the gates a rattle, gave a little knock The devil peeked out, said, "Who's that bangin' on my lock?" He took one look at me, his face went white as paste Slammed the door and shouted, "Get you gone and leave this place! We got enough trouble here, we don't need none of your kind!" I'm the only soul alive that hell is scared to find. (Bridge) No home in the sky, no home in the ground I'm too bad for the bad place, for the good place not found A cosmic reject, an eternal outlaw man Guess I'll just keep walkin', do the best that I can. (Chorus) Yeah, I went down, down, down to the fire and the brimstone! Thought I'd find a welcome on that dark and dusty throne! I gave the gates a rattle, gave a little knock! The devil peeked out, said, "Who's that bangin' on my lock?!" He took one look at me, his face went white as paste! Slammed the door and shouted, "Get you gone and leave this place! We got enough trouble here, we don't need none of your kind!" I'm the only soul alive that hell is scared to find! (Outro) Yeah, the only soul alive... Too hot for heaven, and hell's afraid of me... Just a boy with nowhere... nowhere to be... Nobody wants me... Knock... Knock.. Knocking on Heaven's door...
