Been tryin' to get to heaven,
since she was eleven
The girl with yellow hair has said she never really wanted,
to go to the school
Go to the school
The girl with yellow hair has said she never really wanted,
to go to the school
Go to the school
Break the rule

Been tryin to get to heaven,
(Been tryin to get to heaven,)
since she was eleven
(since she was eleven)

The girl with yellow hair has stayed in bed and never wanted,
to go to work
go to work
The girl with yellow hair has stayed in bed and never needed,
to go to the church
Go to the church
Won't go to church

She's the one that can save your soul,
or she can destroy it
She's the girl who can help the world,
but she just ignores it

Been tryin to get to heaven,
(Been tryin to get to heaven,)
since she was eleven
(since she was eleven)

Been tryin to get to heaven,
(Been tryin to get to heaven,)
since she was eleven
(since she was eleven)
Tthe girl with yellow hair has said she never really wanted,
to go to the school
Go to the school
The girl with yellow hair has stayed in bed and never wanted,
to go to work
go to the church

The girl with yellow hair has said she never really wanted,
to get out of bed,
and get dressed to go to school
