Prefab Sprout Michael
All the jobs I've ever held, positions I have known
The one I was a fool to leave was right hand to the throne
Ambition took me speed of light to God's exclusion zone
Michael, if you're listening, Michael who stayed true
One of us got out of line when paradise was new
One of us was exiled and the one who wasn't's you
Michael, help me write a letter to you know who
I will sign it 'Lucifer regrets'
Can't forget, his final words were
"Ain't no come back, gonna come your way"
What if I pray?
Michael, the archangel listen, Michael, don't you see?
We've come to stand for principles that prove free will is free
If you are on the side of good, now where does that leave me?
Michael, help me write a letter to you know who
I will sign it 'Lucifer regrets'
Can't forget, his final words were
"Ain't no come back, gonna come your way"
He never could resist a sinner
Or ignore a distress call but such a fall
