coney hatch – hey operator lyrics
bad examples
cheap beer night
hey st. peter
i pulled into memphis, i could not slow down
my brakes were gone, i wrecked the car… fire on the ground
then my car exploded and the flames licked my chin
and my life flashed before my eyes like an x-rated film
like a poison arrow my soul shot through the sky
landed there at heaven’s gate, much to my surprise
and an angel with a halo walked up and said, “hey, dude!
welcome to heaven… we’ve got this gl-ss of milk for you.”
(chorus)
i said, “hey st. peter, won’t you open up your gate…
i hear the devil calling, now please don’t make me late.
he’s got loud guitars, alcohol, cheap jamaican wh-r-s…
i don’t want to stay in heaven no more.”
well, satan came a-running, said, “hey, that boy is mine!”
he had a john hiatt t-shirt and trouble in his eye
then the devil on cloud 7 and st. peter on cloud 4
played a hand of poker, and the winner gets my soul
chorus
well the last thing i remember, satan held two jacks
and i woke up in the back of a memphis ambulance
and i do not know for certain which cards st. peter held
so i’m breaking all ten commandments to make sure i go to h-ll
chorus
