Heaven Is a Better Place Today - The Tragically Hip

Here's a glue guy, a performance god

A makeshift shrine, or newly lain sod

Hardly even trying, gives the nod

I sure hope I'm not the type to dwell

Hope I'm a fast healer, fast as hell

Heaven is a better place today

Because of this, but the world is just not the same

If and when you get into the end zone

Act like you've been there a thousand times before

Don't blame, don't say people lose people all the time any more

A toonie to the busker

And a husky, "keep it coming" under my breath

But then said, "Though if you wouldn't mind

Less crying and more trying"

More trying and less crying

I'm not the type to dwell

I'm a fast healer, fast as hell

Heaven is a better place today

Because of this, but the world is just not the same

Oh if and

If and when you get into the end zone

Act like you've been there a thousand times before

Don't blame, but don't say people lose people all the time any more

Don't say people lose people all the time any more

If and when you get into that end zone

Act like you've been there a thousand times before

Don't change, but don't say people lose people all the time any more

It's just not the same

Because of this

It's not the same
