[ti:The Afterlife] [ar:Paul Simon] [al:So Beautiful Or So What] [00:02.00]Paul Simon - The Afterlife [03:23.31][02:28.73][01:36.86][01:02.75][00:11.00] [00:29.34]After I died, and the make up had dried, I went back to my place. [00:35.41]No moon that night, but a heavenly light shone on my face. [00:40.91]Still I thought it was odd, there was no sign of God just to usher me in. [00:46.39]Then a voice from above, sugar coated with love, said "Let us begin". [02:23.44][02:17.68][01:31.97][01:26.41][00:57.90][00:51.98]You got to fill out a form first, and then you wait in the line. [01:03.52]OK, a new kid in school, got to follow the rule, you got to learn the routine. [01:09.19]Woah, there's a girl over there, with the sunshiny hair, like a homecomin' queen. [01:14.88]I said, "Hey, what you say? It's a glorious day, by the way how long you been dead?" [01:20.84]Maybe you, maybe me, maybe baby makes three, but she just shook her head... [01:55.08]Buddha and Moses and all the noses from narrow to flat, [02:00.78]Had to stand in the line, just to glimpse the divine, what you think about that? [02:06.31]Well it seems like our fate to suffer and wait for the knowledge we seek. [02:12.09]It's all His design, no one cuts in the line, no one here likes a sneak [02:46.34]After you climb, up the ladder of time, the Lord God is here. [02:52.28]Face to face, in the vastness of space, your words disappear. [02:58.05]And you feel like swimming in an ocean of love, and the current is strong. [03:03.43]But all that remains when you try to explain is a fragment of song... [03:09.26]Lord is it, Be-Bop-A-Lula or Ooh-Poppa-Do [03:14.93]Lord, Be-Bop-A-Lula or Ooh-Poppa-Do [03:20.64]Be-Bop-A-Lula
