Roger Joseph Manning, Jr. - Turnstile at Heaven's Gate lyrics

This Is Your Life, with special guests; give it to me straight You never learn, back down you go with all the other apes Now hold tight Stay focused on that point of light And just like learning to ride a bike Then suddenly it occurs to me I just might be spinning Around and 'round at the turnstile at Heaven's Gate Where I'm stuck in a tug-o-war for my soul and there's no escape Foolish game I refuse to play Here's the tale of the Karmic Castaway! Shore leave at last Oh, what a war This guy could use a break Hey, not so fast Your country calls There must be some mistake Now breathe slow, sit back and relax and just let it flow But hold on, I never cast my vote And suddenly it's all clear to me that I just keep spinning Around and 'round at the turnstile at Heaven's Gate It's as though I'm a refugee from the heart of our Milky Way Guinea pig for your pa**ion play Spend my days as the Karmic Castaway! Oooh Ascended Masters claim Seven levels to attain self realization Save an over dose of cosmic rays [Which] realigns your DNA And forces early graduation (It's graduation time) But to my western mind It just seems so asinine Now, you could find yourself going 'round not a hundred, a thousand But a million lifetimes "Ok, now here's a big surprise, Jim. Looks like [the] coach is sending down this season's underdog, number five twenty-seven sixty-six. Now this guy's coming off one hell of a losing streak — you couldn't ask for a more perfect example of the old adage "if at first you don't succeed..." Because it's preordained But before you all get too carried away My higher self has a point to make This whole damn thing's rather inhumane Won't you please stop spinning me Spinning 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round ... And 'round and 'round at the turnstile at Heaven's Gate Nothing more than your eyes and ears, Volunteer in an altered state Catch a comet, now don't be late Got a voice but don't have a say Karmic debt's such a b**h to pay So prepare for the Karmic Castaway! Don't want to play this game Another Groundhog Day It's more fun that way...
