Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Angels in the sky, behind the moon's eye
Flying at the speed of sound
They're gonna catch you
Before you hit the ground
[Verse 2]
Thank your lucky pennies
For buying one more day
Your good behavior tokens
Just earned you minimum wage
[Chorus]
Play the game, maybe you'll get paid
Better life's waiting, someday
Keep believing in those angels in the sky
Give 'em everything, like you're told
You can be young, but never old
[Verse 3]
Round and round this thing keeps spinning
Makes you wonder what makes it turn
Is it the love we're giving
Or the bridges that we burn
What if we all stopped believing
In those angels in the sky
[Chorus]
Play the game, maybe you'll get paid
Better life's waiting, someday
Keep believing in those angels in the sky
Give 'em everything, like you're told
You can be young, but never old
[Bridge]
Uptown, upside down
Nobody's got the answers
Just say yes sir, watch your mouth
Smile like nothing matters
'Cause kindness pays
At least that's what they say
[Verse 4]
Life ain't cheap, not their way
Stay in line now, don't you stray
And maybe, just maybe
You'll meet your angel in the sky
[Chorus]
Play the game, maybe you'll get paid
Better life's waiting, someday
Keep believing in those angels in the sky
Give 'em everything, like you're told
You can be young, but never old
[Outro]
Keep believing in those angels
Your angels in the sky
They're coming for you, someday
