All the time he had tried to be somebody good
Went to church, helped the poor like the penitent should
And the priest said it's sure he'll be given sainthood
And on the day death arrived
He got the shock of his life
Surprise!
He's cast out from heaven
He's cast out from heaven
What a shame
What a shame
Saint Peter said he'll be punished for philanthropy
His road to hell is paved with those bad good deeds
He saved a man who went on to kill a family
And on the day death arrived
He got the shock of his life
Surprise
He's cast out from heaven
He's cast out from heaven
Be gone
Be gone, hallelujah
Be gone, oh lord
Be gone, hallelujah
Be gone, oh lord
Demons out
Demons out
Demons out
Demons out
He's cast out from heaven
He's cast out from heaven
He's cast out from heaven
He's cast out from heaven
What a shame
