Ascension Blues

She said I'm sick of all the sucking up
She said I'm terrified of coming down
She wants to meet me back uptown

Diane Lane kept me sane through the spring
I was flirting with the films
I was trying to say something that seemed kinda interesting
Still trying to figure out if she felt anything

We walked into the church and people got down on the floor
Rolled around obeying the cheers, all filled up with the spirit of the Lord
I've never felt like that before

I only bow down to the jet set
Fame was so quick, we hadn't met yet
We're gonna all be friends in heaven
We're gonna all be friends in heaven

She said he looked like Jimmy Connors
She said he tasted like the Calvin Klein
She said we had a pretty huge time

He came onto the court and he knelt before the sword
There was feedback in the speakers and the sound man fried the board
I'm pretty sure I went there once before

It came to me on television
Richard Gere in Days of Heaven
Walking through Sam Shepard's mansion
We're gonna all be friends in heaven
We're gonna all be friends in heaven
We're gonna all be friends in heaven

She said I know you got a lot of love to give
But now you know you can't know where I live
I know you try to keep it pretty positive
And if it makes you feel a little bit better
We're gonna all be friends in heaven

All the people on my TV
We're gonna all be friends in heaven
All the actors and the athletes
We're gonna all be friends in heaven
To be young, wild, and pretty
We're gonna all be friends in heaven
In the sweet part of the city
We're gonna all be friends in heaven

We're gonna get something in heaven
