lyrics

Lyrics:

Stay on target be the arrow don’t stray from the straight and narrow,
be courageous but be afraid enough to keep your family safe,
it’s OK to celebrate the 2021 inauguration date
just don’t go in anyone else’s home
and keep your mask over your mouth and nose.
and remember better's only gonna be a little better
so try not to implode
keep marching if you can or walk like thunder
but don’t forget that thunder rolls,
don’t forget that thunder rolls
we need to make this whole world more accessible,
we need to make this whole world more accessible

there’s a stairway to heaven so how the hell we gonna get in (x4)

These safety features are gonna kill me,
‘cause I’m the first to go in a burning building.
How can I get down when the elevator’s stuck?
A nuisance losing all my delegated fucks.
Depends how you regulate you trust
this time around the sun ain’t no celebrating us.

When everything reopens and we can hang out again build a ramp for all your friends (x2)

When it comes to physics round things roll
when it comes to ramps you need this common ratio
one foot-long for every inch of rise
that’s the math we’ll use to make sure everyone can come inside.

When it comes to physics round things roll
when it comes to ramps you need this common ratio
one foot-long for every inch of rise
that’s the math we need to make sure everyone can come inside.

Build a ramp to heaven for your family and friends so that all the good ones can get in. (x3)

Heaven won’t be heaven without them.

There’s a stairway to heaven so how the hell we gonna get in?
