While digesting reader's digest | |
In the back of a dirty book store, | |
A plastic flag, with gum on the back, | |
Fell out on the floor. | |
Well, i picked it up and i ran outside | |
Slapped on my window shield, | |
And if i could see old betsy ross | |
I tell her how good i feel. | |
Chorus: | |
But your flag decal won't get you | |
Into heaven any more. | |
They're already overcrowded | |
From your dirty little war. | |
Now jesus don't like killin' | |
No matter what the reason's for, | |
And your flag decal won't get you | |
Into heaven any more. | |
Well, i went to the bank this morning | |
And the cashier he said to me, | |
"if you join the christmas club | |
We'll give you ten of them flags for free." | |
Well, i didn't mess around a bit | |
I took her up on what he said. | |
And i stuck them stickers all over my car | |
And one on my wife's forehead. | |
Repeat chorus: | |
Well, i got my window shield so filled | |
With flags i couldn't see. | |
So, i ran the car upside a curb | |
And right into a tree. | |
By the time they got a doctor down | |
I was already dead. | |
And i'll never understand why the man | |
Standing in the pearly gates said... | |
But your flag decal won't get you | |
Into heaven any more. | |
We're already overcrowded | |
From your dirty little war. | |
Now jesus don't like killin' | |
No matter what the reason's for, | |
And your flag decal won't get you | |
Into heaven any more. |
