​can’t quit

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Meg Remy] I was standing at the pearly gates I was looking for a man of faith I had questions pressing on me more than not I was looking for some answers on the spot [Verse 2: Meg Remy] Two girls walked in, paperwork in hand And they were tanned from the trip And they'd seen the judge, he'd heard 'em out Wasn't lookin' good, wasn't lookin' good for us What about us? [Verse 3: Meg Remy] But like some roadside vet with a bag in hand I could do anything St. Peter asked For one chance to be an angel in his eyes It seemed to be the safe bet, so I closed my eyes And I opened my gates wide And St. Peter came inside [Chorus: James Baley] Never, never be safe even if you're in the gates Give it up, you're just some man's daughter Never, never be safe even if you're in the gates Give it up, you're just some man's daughter [Verse 4: Meg Remy] I promise, this is not a rumor I asked for nothing but to stop it short I guess he didn't hear a word I said And after he acted as if I hadn't been in his bed I was definitely in that man's bed [Verse 5: Meg Remy] Peter bragged he was good at pulling out Always knew the right time to take a bow He practiced it every single night It hadn't failed him yet He'd been doing it a long, long time And Peter just does, ah, whatever Peter likes, whatever Peter likes [Chorus: James Baley] Never, never be safe even if you're in the gates Give it up, you're just some man's daughter Never, never be safe even if you're in the gates Give it up, you're just some man's daughter [Outro: Meg Remy & James Baley] Even if you're at the pearly gates Even if you're at the pearly gates, yeah, yeah Even if you're at the pearly gates Even if you're at the pearly gates, pearly gates Never be at the gates where Peter lay Never be safe, pearly gates Never be at the gates where Peter lay (Never, never be) Never, never be safe Pearly gates Never be at the gates where Peter lay Never be safe Pearly gates Never be at the gates where Peter lay Never be safe Pearly gates Never be at the gates where Peter lay Never be safe Pearly gates Never be at the gates where Peter lay Never be safe Pearly gates
