Lyrics
It’s not what Heaven is
– Akukhona Lokho Izulu eliyikho
It’s what it could be
– Yilokho okungase kube yikho
With new management in charge
– Nabaphathi abasha abaphethe
Like you, and you, and me
– Njengawe, nawe, nami
Once we get up there
– Lapho sesisondele lapho
And snag that angelic throne
– Futhi ubambe leso sihlalo sobukhosi sengelosi
Our unholy trinity could make their realm our own
– Uziqu zintathu wethu ongcwele wayengenza umbuso wabo ube ngowethu
We’ll pack up all their piety, and redecorate
– Sizoqoqa konke ukuzinikela kwabo, futhi sihlobise kabusha
Bet our tower would look powerful with pearlier gates
– Ukubheja umbhoshongo wethu uzobukeka unamandla ngamasango eparele
Once we get up there
– Lapho sesisondele lapho
Up to the promised land
– Kuze kufike ezweni lesithembiso
A hundred billion souls await our every command
– Imiphefumulo eyizigidi eziyizinkulungwane eziyikhulu ilindele yonke imiyalo yethu
We’re the biggest fish in Hell, how ’bout we upgrade the bowl?
– Siyizinhlanzi ezinkulu Kunazo Zonke Esihogweni, ‘sithuthukisa kanjani isitsha?
It’s time for growth, let’s rule ’em both!
– Sekuyisikhathi sokukhula, ake sibabuse bobabili!
Take total control
– Thatha ukulawula okuphelele
Think of all your dreams that could come true
– Cabanga ngawo wonke amaphupho akho angagcwaliseka
Even the wet ones?
– Ngisho nalezo ezimanzi?
Yeah, those too!
– Yebo, nalabo!
Imagine what it could enable
– Cabanga ukuthi yini engayenza
For my label
– Ilebula lami
Yes!
– Yebo!
A heavenly host that bows to none but us
– Umkhosi wasezulwini ongakhothami kithi kuphela
I can have hot new angel sluts
– Ngingaba nezingelosi ezintsha ezishisayo
Tear off their wings and make ’em dresses!
– Ziklebhule amaphiko azo futhi zenze izingubo!
And what’s best is
– Futhi yini engcono kakhulu
That dumb princess showed us the way
– Leyo nkosazana eyisiphukuphuku yasibonisa indlela
To make those haloed cabrónas pay
– Ukwenza labo cabrónas haloed ukhokhe
And once we’re gods, I can’t wait to say
– Futhi uma sesingonkulunkulu, angisakwazi ukulinda ukusho
To everyone who doubted me, your doubting days are done
– Kubo bonke abangangabaza, izinsuku zakho zokungabaza seziphelile
You’ll be cornered, trapped, and tortured
– Uzobanjwa, uboshwe, futhi uhlushwe
Then I’ll end you, just for fun
– Khona-ke ngizokuqeda, ukuze nje ngijabule
Once we get up there
– Lapho sesisondele lapho
The shining kingdom of God
– Umbuso Kankulunkulu okhanyayo
No more petty squabbles with the dead
– Akusekho ukuxabana okuncane nabafileyo
As we stroll the golden promenade
– Njengoba sihamba igolden promenade
What’s an overlord to a deity?
– Uyini unkulunkulu ophakeme kunkulunkulu?
They ain’t got a prayer
– Awunawo umthandazo
It’ll be so nice in paradise
– Kuyoba kuhle kangaka epharadesi
With a splash of vice, they’ll pay the price
– Ngokuchitheka kobubi, bayokhokha inani
We’ll rule the sky from up on high
– Sizobusa isibhakabhaka sisuka phezulu siye phezulu
Once I
– Ngake Ngaba
And I
– Mina
And I
– Mina
Get up there
– Vuka lapho
They’re fucked!
– Ziyadukiswa!
