Been tryin' to get to heaven,
since she was eleven.
The girl with yellow hair has said she never really wanted,
to go to the school.
Go to the school.
The girl with yellow hair has said she never really wanted,
to go to the school.
Go to the school.
Break the rule.

Been tryin to get to heaven,
(Been tryin to get to heaven,)
since she was eleven.
(since she was eleven.)

The girl with yellow hair has stayed in bed and never wanted,
to go to work.
go to work.
The girl with yellow hair has stayed in bed and never needed,
to go to the church.
Go to the church.
Won't go to church.

She's the one that can save your soul,
or she can destroy it.
She's the girl who can help the world,
but she just ignores it.

Been tryin to get to heaven,
(Been tryin to get to heaven,)
since she was eleven.
(since she was eleven.)

Been tryin to get to heaven,
(Been tryin to get to heaven,)
since she was eleven.
(since she was eleven.)
Tthe girl with yellow hair has said she never really wanted,
to go to the school.
Go to the school.
The girl with yellow hair has stayed in bed and never wanted,
to go to work.
go to the church

The girl with yellow hair has said she never really wanted,
to get out of bed,
and get dressed to go to school
