Espen Lind Where Heros Go To Die Lyrics

Where Heros Go To Die Lyrics

I spoke to Elvis on the phone 
the other day 
His ghost was
calling
from a pay phone in L.A. 

He said he'd meet me 
on the
corner of my dreams 
And we would ride to heaven 
to see the stuff you
can't see 
on your TV screen 

Ah-hah 
A-ha-ha yeah 
Ooh-o-oh
yeah 

We drove his Cadillac 
up to heaven's floor 
Knock knock
knockin' 
on heaven's door 
Yeah

The security angel asked for some
I.D. 
Then the gate parted 
and the music started 
as we rolled into
the front yard

If I was special 
maybe I 
could be a hero 
when
I die 
I'd get my wings and learn to fly 

Yeah-e-yeah yeah

I
feel so funky 'cos I know 
When I die I wish to go
to the place 
where
all the heroes go to die

I-hi I-i-hi yeah 
Oh-o-hi yeah 

This
special heaven 
was home to all the stars 
The first one I saw was
Hendrix 
burning his guitar 
Freddie Mercury and Kennedy was there

But I didn't see Marilyn 
so I forgot to ask about their
affair

If I was special 
maybe I
could be a hero
when I
die
I'd get my wings and learn to fly 

Yeah-e-yeah-ah 

I feel
so funky 'cos I know 
When I die I wish to go 
To the place 
where all
the heroes go to die

Yeah yeah yeah yeah 
(Mmm...) 
(...)


My skin is dotted pink and green
I hope to God this is a dream

or else I'm gonna scream
(...) 

If you say I lie to you 
I
tell you every word is true too 
(...) 

Ah yeah 

That very
evening I had a talk with God 
My lord he asked me 
what I thought of
life above 
I said "Everything is awesome man
it's like a hero
wonderland 
I'm sure if I see the full picture yet
but I think I
understand" 

"Yes, I'd say it's kinda nice 
Eternal life
beyond them skies 
We live our lives with open eyes" 

Yeah and
he said: 
"Everything you want is free 
There's always sunshine on
TV
in the place 
where all the heroes go to die" 

Heroes go
to die 

Baby 
Oooh to die 

Elvis said: "It's time to
fly" 
So all the heroes waved goodbye 
from their jungle in the
skies 

Yeah-e-yeah yeah 

I feel so funky now I know 
When I
die I wish to go
to the place 
where all the heroes go to
die

Oooh...

Yeah yeah yeah
