Heaven and Back

She had been misplaced by the government Our old friends are under attack They crossed over the border (But) I have been to heaven and back I've been to heaven and back Right in front of my eyes Things have a habit of happening to me It's no suprise Some of the people they stayed behind Now they're all in prison or dead I'm looking up at the mountain I have been to heaven and back Ooo animal radar Like a thread around the world Loving and laughing my head's going 'round I am a curious boy... Some people write little verses Others go on looking for cracks Uh handcuffed to history I have been to heaven and back --- Heaven and Back - The Mekons
