Celestial Employment

from The Fun Stuff by Dan Veaner

/

lyrics

Some say that angels don’t exist
But when I’m laid to rest
If I could have an angel’s job
I’ll know that I’ve been blessed

For when I die I want a job
So I had this idea
I’d learn to fly and play the harp
In that celestial sphere

I could have learned just for enjoyment
Harp and how to fly
But I want guaranteed employment
After, when I die

And when I reach the pearly gates
My resume to tell there
I know they’ll let me have the job
I know I will do well there

I’ll pluck my strings while soaring on
My cloud so fluffy soft
Maintaining lift and altitude
While plucking strings aloft

I could have learned just for enjoyment
Harp and how to fly
But I want guaranteed employment
After, when I die

Two things I’ll be when I transcend
Are pilot and musician
And they result when I ascend
A guaranteed position

The best credentials you can have
Are playing harp or horn
Still better if you add to that
Play music while airborne.

I could have learned just for enjoyment
Harp and how to fly
But I want guaranteed employment
After, when I die
