Hell To Pay At The Gates Of Heaven

Peter Doherty

Come on, boys, you gotta choose your weapon
J-45 or AK-47
There's hell to pay at the gates of heaven
And the whole show it comes tumbling down
There's hell to pay at the gates of heaven
Come on, choose your weapons
J-45's or AK-47's
There's hell to pay at the gates of heaven
And the whole show it comes tumbling down

The only way out of the dustbowl or the farm for thee
Join a band or join the army
It's a hell of a kickback from the grind
Kick back and blow your tiny mind

Three-page advert on the LA Times
They want religious fanatics with a military mind
They want from London to Bangkok
Moscow to Palestine
Hopping and praying in time

Come on, choose your weapons
J-45's or AK-47's
It's all aboard for Armageddon
And the whole damn show it comes tumbling down

The only way out of the dustbowl or the farm for thee
Join a band or join the army
It's a hell of a kickback from the grind
Kick back and blow your tiny mind

How you're gonna provide for your vast idle family?
Start a band or start the army
London, Hamburg, and Palestine
Hopping and crawling and praying in time

Come on, you gotta choose your weapon
J-45 or AK-47
There's hell to pay at the gates of heaven
And the whole show comes tumbling down
