Italics= DFG
Bold= Both
Do you know what they tell me
All those kids at school
That I'll never be anything
And I'm acting like a fool
You say it gets better
I say whatever
'Cause I still wanna
I still wanna go to heaven
I wanna go to heaven where there's cotton candy clouds
'Cause your soul can't get obese
I wanna go to heaven where there's cotton candy clouds
Only then will I be at peace
Do you know what they tell me
All those kids online
That I'm way too depressed
Maybe I should take that as a sign
You say it gets better
I say whatever
'Cause I still wanna
I still wanna go to heaven
I wanna go to heaven where there's cotton candy clouds
'Cause your soul can't get obese
I wanna go to heaven where there's cotton candy clouds
Only then will I be at peace
All I need
Is something strong to hold my neck
To prepare it for the afterlife
Where I get to see the cotton candy clouds
I wanna go to heaven where there's cotton candy clouds
'Cause your soul can't get obese
I wanna go to heaven where there's cotton candy clouds
Only then will I be at peace
Wanted to go to heaven where there's cotton candy clouds
Now my soul's been sent straight down
Wanted to go to heaven where there's cotton candy clouds
Where's my heavenly crown?
