See You In The Afterlife

by Foster The People

Lyrics
The world is spinnin' madly
Seeing kaleidoscopic lights
And it's like we've all been hypnotized
As we're driftin' off to paradise

Well, I used to go by Johnny but now you can call me Jackie O
Uh-huh, walkin' in stilettos, breakin' down the walls like Jericho
Today I woke up cryin', so I went into a church to pray
They said, "Excuse me but you'll have to leave or we're callin' security"

The headlines got us thinkin' that we're all gonna die

Then convince us that we have to buy a ticket for the afterlife

Well, the world is spinnin' madly
Seeing kaleidoscopic lights
And it's like we've all been hypnotized
As we're driftin' off to paradise
And the self-important faces
Are just laughin' at the signs
The Coliseum's empty
I guess I'll see you in the afterlife

Well, it's European summer and the skies are lookin' kinda mean
Well, I'm thinkin' of a holiday, what's the weather like in Kyiv?
(Uh, uh) And the sun is peekin' out over all the tired faces

Well, my friends were goin' out last night and I still haven't heard from them

The headlines got us thinkin' that we're all gonna die
Then convince us that we have to sell our ticket for the afterlife

I guess I'll see you in the afterlife
I guess I'll see you in the afterlife

The self-important faces
Are just laughin' at the signs
And the Coliseum's empty
I guess I'll see, I guess I'll see you in the afterlife
