| I asked the habitual partygoer | |
| Just how high she thought she'd get, | |
| And I asked the ethereal girls | |
| If they were floating yet | |
| And so I asked the light of the day, | |
| What's this rush for heaven, | |
| And I saw a bird fly away, | |
| And I could not ask again. | |
| The tabloid-tainted actress knows | |
| The myth of higher ground. | |
| The thing she got from playing a nun | |
| She got from sleeping around. | |
| And so I asked the light of the day, | |
| What's this rush for heaven, | |
| And I saw a bird fly away, | |
| And I could not ask again. | |
| He fell in the mud and | |
| He became enlightened | |
| I wonder who's laughin' now | |
| And I've been running uphill, | |
| Panting, punching at the air, | |
| Fighting what's been pushing me down, | |
| Like I can see it there. | |
| And so I asked the light of the day, what's this rush for heaven, | |
| And I saw a bird fly away, and | |
| I could not ask again. | |
| And I saw all this climbing, climbing, just as far from heaven, | |
| And I saw a bird fly away, and | |
| I started climbing again. | |
| Who's laughing now | |
| He fell in the mud and | |
| He became enlightened, | |
| I wonder...who's laughing now |
