Up There
[Verse 1: Satan]
Sometimes I think when I look up real high
That there's such a big world up there, I'd like to give it a try
But then I sink 'cause it's here I'm s'posed to stay
But I get so lonely down here, tell me why's it have to be that way?
[Chorus: Satan & Choir]
Up there, there's so much room
Where babies burp and flowers bloom
Everyone dreams, I can dream too
Up there, up where the skies are ocean blue
I could be safe and live without a care
Up there (Ooh)
[Verse 2: Satan, Choir, Satan & Choir]
They say I don't belong (Hoo, hoo)
I must stay below alone (Hoo, hoo)
Because of my beliefs, I'm supposed to stay where evil is sown (Hoo, hoo)
But what is evil anyway? (Haa)
Is there reason to the rhyme? (Hoo, hoo)
Without evil, there could be no good
So it must be good to be evil sometimes
[Chorus: Satan, Choir, Satan & Choir]
Up there, there's so much room (Ah)
Where babies burp and flowers bloom (Ooh)
Everyone dreams, I can dream too
Up there, up where the skies are ocean blue (Ah, hoo, hoo)
I could be safe and live without a care (Without a care)
Live without a care (If I could)
If only I could live up (Live up)
[Bridge: Satan, Choir, Satan & Choir]
There (Ah, ah)
I wanna live, I wanna live up
Oh, hoo (Ooh), baby, ooh (Aw, yeah)
[Outro: Satan Satan & Choir]
I want to live up there
