traffic in the afterlife - kyle stibbs lyrics
[verse 1]
standing by the side of the bed that grandpa’s in
but don’t look like him
a priest walked into the room to share some final words
grandpa said “i don’t need prayers from you
i’ve just got a question
now tell me the truth
and don’t laugh or crack a smile if the question sounds absurd”
[chorus]
“is there traffic in the afterlife?
’cause i lost my wife just a few years back
and i don’t think i have the patience to keep waiting when i’m there
are there police in the afterlife?
’cause i just might speed to get by her side
handcuffs in heaven don’t sound fair
i don’t really wanna ask you twice
is there traffic in the afterlife?”
[verse 2]
silence had fallen over the room
and the priest held back a little grin or two
he wanted to stick to the script of the prayers that he had planned
grandpa always had a kind old soul
but he knew what he wanted to say and be told
n0body ever made the claim that he wasn’t a stubborn man
he said
[chorus]
“is there traffic in the afterlife?
’cause i lost my wife just a few years back
and i don’t think i have the patience to keep waiting when i’m there
are there police in the afterlife?
’cause i just might speed to get by her side
handcuffs in heaven don’t sound fair
i don’t really wanna ask you twice
is there traffic in the afterlife?”
[bridge]
he said
“father, father, i don’t wanna be a bother, bother
father, father, but i gotta know
father, father, i don’t wanna be a bother, bother
father, father, but i gotta know”
[chorus]
“is there traffic in the afterlife?
’cause i lost my wife just a few years back
and i don’t think i have the patience to keep waiting when i’m there
are there police in the afterlife?
’cause i just might speed to get by her side
handcuffs in heaven don’t sound fair
i don’t really wanna ask you twice
i don’t really wanna ask advice
i don’t really wanna ask you twice
is there traffic in the afterlife?”
