[Okkervil River - What are they doing in Heaven today? lyrics]
What are they doing in heaven today?
Where sin and sorrow are all gone away
Peace abounds by the river they say
What are they doing there now?
I'm thinking of friends I used to know
Who lived and they suffered
In this world below
If they’ve gone up to heaven
Then I'd like to know
What they doing there now?
What are they doing in heaven today?
Where doubt and sin are all gone away
Pеace abounds by the water thеy say
What are they doing there now?
There are some who are
Poor and often despised
They look up to heaven with tear blinded eyes
And some who are heedless
In death do they cry?
What are they doing there now?
What are they doing in heaven today?
Where doubt and sin are all gone away
Peace abounds by the river they say
What are they doing there now?
And what are they doing there now?
Where sin and sorrow are all gone away
Peace abounds by the river they say
What are they doing there now?
I'm thinking of friends I used to know
Who lived and they suffered
In this world below
If they’ve gone up to heaven
Then I'd like to know
What they doing there now?
What are they doing in heaven today?
Where doubt and sin are all gone away
Pеace abounds by the water thеy say
What are they doing there now?
There are some who are
Poor and often despised
They look up to heaven with tear blinded eyes
And some who are heedless
In death do they cry?
What are they doing there now?
What are they doing in heaven today?
Where doubt and sin are all gone away
Peace abounds by the river they say
What are they doing there now?
And what are they doing there now?
