Heavenly Dress
Lyrics: Neil Spencer; Melody and guitar: Steve Lake, Bass: Paul O'Donnell
Guitar: Adrian Renton, Vocals Michelle Woolley
A commentary on fashion and lifestyle and trend, and their ultimate irrelevance
Heaven doesn’t care how you wear your hat
Heaven’s way too busy to bother about that
Your trilby, your turban, your hijab so bold
Heaven only cares about the lies that you told
Heaven doesn’t give a damn about stuff like that
Heaven’s unconcerned by the way you dress
Your Friday smock or your Sunday best
Heaven doesn’t fret about your favoured Book
Heaven only cares about the lives you took
Heaven doesn’t give a damn about stuff like that
Chorus
Heaven’s indifferent if you’re straight or weird
If you wear a wig or sport a beard
Heaven doesn’t notice if you shave your legs
How you carry your frame, what you do in bed
Heaven doesn’t give a damn about stuff like that
Heaven’s attention is on the love that you offer
The harm that you do, the help that you proffer
The openness of your beating heart
To the stream of creation of which you’re a part
Heaven doesn’t give a damn about stuff like that
Chorus
