Mannequin Pussy - I Got Heaven

I Got Heaven by Mannequin Pussy Song lyrics | Music video

[Song produced & mixed by John Congleton]

[Intro:]
Li-li-li-li-li
Li-li-li, li-li-li-li

I went and walked myself
Like a dog without a leash
Now I'm growling at a stranger
I am biting at their knees
And if I wanted it
You really think
I'd wait for the permission?
For protection and assurances
That all would be delivered?


[Verse:]
And like our fathers did
Our mothers did
And them and those before
And you say you want a difference
The honor to be yours
And like our fathers did
Our mother did
And them and those before
The echo and a retell
Of some shit we'vе heard before


And what if wе stopped spinning?
And what if we're just flat?
And what if Jesus himself ate my fucking snatch?
And what if I'm an angel?
Oh, what if I'm a bore?
And what if I was confident
Would you just hate me more?


[Chorus]
Ooooh, I got heaven
Inside of me
and ooooh (heaven)
I'm an angel
I was sent here (heaven)
To keep you company


I'm on an endless march to nothingness
With only breath inside my chest
And the promise of a life
That you deserve, that you thought best
I'm stuck inside my loneliness
I'm stuck inside my grief
I wish I could have been there
To save you from the reach
I am spiteful like a god
Seek a vengeance like the rest
For what they did to you
I will never lay to rest
It's raw and unrelenting
It is absolute regression
It is vileness wrapped up
And disguised as happy endings


[Chorus]
Ooooh, I got heaven
Inside of me
and ooooh (heaven)
I'm an angel
I was sent here (heaven)
To keep you company


I'm stuck inside my loneliness
I'm stuck inside my grief
I wish I could have been there
To save you from the reach
I am spiteful like a god
I seek a vengeance like the rest
For what they did to you
I will never lay to rest
I go and walk myself outside
Like a dog without a leash
Now I'm growling at a stranger
I am biting at their knees
