Questions for Heaven
Curious Inquiries: Conversations with the Divine
Lyrics
Feel the sun in my eyes
Feeling the warmth of the sun on my face.
Swat that clumsy fly
Swatting away a distracting fly.
Woke me up from a dream about Heaven
Waking up from a dream about Heaven.
Smellin' coffee downstairs
Smelling coffee brewing downstairs.
Yawn a quick little prayer
Expressing a brief prayer with a yawn.
And get up at a quarter to seven
Getting up early, at a quarter to seven.
Mirror catches my stare
Looking in the mirror and noticing bedhead.
Got some nice pillow hair
Having messy but nice-looking hair.
And I smile all the way to the bathroom
Smiling while heading to the bathroom.
Scratch my whiskery chin
Scratching a chin covered in facial hair.
Now my cranium swims
Having a mind filled with questions.
With questions I can't wait to ask You
Anticipation of asking questions to God.
Like why did you bother with so many stars?
Questioning the purpose of so many stars.
Do you ever play tricks on the angels?
Wondering if God plays tricks on angels.
And what happened to all of those dinosaurs?
Inquiring about the fate of dinosaurs.
Where's the Garden of Eden?
Seeking the location of the Garden of Eden.
And what causes de ja vu?
Questioning the cause of déjà vu.
I guess in Heaven I'll learn
Expressing a willingness to learn in Heaven.
I'll be waiting my turn
Waiting patiently for a turn to ask questions.
To ask about quasars and feathers
Planning to ask about quasars and feathers.
I hope the line isn't long I hope
Hoping the line to ask questions isn't long.
Your patience is strong
Believing in God's enduring patience.
It's a good thing forever's forever
Acknowledging the eternal nature of forever.
Do our jokes make you laugh?
Curious if God finds human jokes amusing.
What's your favorite cartoon?
Asking about God's favorite cartoon.
Can you tell me what's out past the edges?
Inquiring about the mysteries beyond known boundaries.
And what about UFOs, taste buds,
Asking about UFOs, taste buds, and tornadoes.
And tornadoes? Why do we dream?
Questioning the purpose of dreams.
Oh, and what causes de ja vu?
Repeating the question about the cause of déjà vu.
Time to call it a day
Deciding it's time to end the day.
Time to turn off my brain
Preparing to relax and stop thinking.
It's already half past eleven
Noting the late hour, half past eleven.
Reach to turn out the light
Reaching to turn off the light.
And close my sleepy eyes
Closing sleepy eyes for the night.
And save up the questions for Heaven
Saving unanswered questions for Heaven.
I'll save all the questions for Heaven
Reiterating the intention to save questions for Heaven.
I'm saving up questions for Heaven
Committing to accumulating questions for the afterlife.
