  • We will never lend a hand to this again
    When everybody asks "What then?"
    Well, long as we can just pretend

    Even with the wait, with all of this at stake
    Well, heaven is a risk I'll take
    We'll never ever have to chase it

    Every day a ray, hooray, I hear the phone
    Singing in their towns, they're dedicated
    To all the sounds they've found in praise of God
    They put you in the mine and then you find the gold
    And every episode, I am sedated
    By the past and droves of everything
    And all the sounds I make in praise of God
    Put me in the mind and there I find the load

    We will never lend a hand to this again
    When everybody asks "What then?"
    Well, long as we can just pretend

    Even with the wait, with all of this at stake
    Well, heaven is a risk I'll take
    Heaven is a risk I'll take

    Every sound
    Every sound you make
    Every sound
    Every day

    From a ship light, he got the rope
    For his truth in life, and tooth in gold
    By the time I thought he'd have climbed
    He taught himself in time to admit defeat
    No, he didn't even wake up from his sleep

    Heaven is a risk I'll
    Take a hand to this again
    When everybody asks "What then?"
    Well, long as we can just pretend

    Even with the wait, with all of this at stake
    Well, heaven is a risk I'll take

    Heaven is a risk I'll take
    Heaven is a risk I'll take
    Heaven is a risk I'll take
    Heaven is a risk I'll take
    Heaven is a risk I'll take Writer/s: Damon Albarn, Jack Steadman
