Lyrics:
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
