All the jobs I've ever held, positions I have known
|
|
The one I was a fool to leave was
|
|
Right hand to the throne
|
|
Ambition took me speed of light
|
|
To God's exclusion zone
|
|
Michael if you're listening,
|
|
Michael who stayed true
|
|
One of us got out of line when Paradise was new
|
|
One of us was exiled and the one who wasn't's you
|
|
Michael - help me write a letter to you know who
|
|
I will sign it "Lucifer regrets..."
|
|
Can't forget his final words were
|
|
"Ain't no comeback gonna come your way"
|
|
What if I pray ?
|
|
Michael the archangel listen.
|
|
Michael don't you see ?
|
|
We've come to stand for principles that
|
|
Prove free will is free
|
|
If you are on the side of good
|
|
Now where does that leave me ?
|
|
Michael - help me write a letter to you know who
|
|
I will sign it "Lucifer regrets..."
|
|
Can't forget his final words were
|
|
"Ain't no comeback gonna come your way"
|
|
He never could resist a sinner
|
|
Or ignore a distress call - but such a fall
|
