I leased out my condo in Heaven
And rented out a shack in Hell;
cos that's where all my loved ones are..
Baby, without them I can’t just gel

Nothing does forever change
Though it is said it is inevitable
And everything appears to change
While the truth is change is reversible

Just as the Dog returns to eat his *****
and the Sow returns to her Mire,
So does the harlot return to her client
And the followers to God return in prayer

Change is the only constant
That appears all the time
The illusion of the permanent
That forever is not thine

Just as the putrid **** turns fertilizer
To produce the food that’s eaten
So also is death the great equalizer
And only God does remain unbeaten

I leased out my condo in Heaven
And rented out a shack in Hell;
For that’s where my friends are
Now baby, does that ring a bell……???

The original "as the Dog returns to eat his *****" is from the Holy Bible - Proverbs, I guess. It was borrowed by Kipling & I've borrowed it from him. I guess we all have heaven within us but repeatedly fall for the material world around us...
