lyrics

You planned ahead
and made your reservation
The password you were told
could get you in
You fought to represent
your god and nation
You made your reputation
But there’s just one little thing

There ain’t no gold in the sky
There ain’t no silver in a sea sucked dry
There ain’t no pearly gates that you can buy
And you can’t get to heaven
On the wings of a lie

I watch you every night on television
And all your teeth are white and fine and free
But your rivals, they all thrive on repetition
They’ve made a bolder mission
Saying hate will set us free

There ain’t no gold in the sky
There ain’t no silver in a sea sucked dry
There ain’t no sweet revenge that you can buy
And you can’t get to heaven on the wings of a lie

Do you want me baby? Don’t be shy
Do you need me baby to fight or fly?
I could love you baby til the day I die
But we can’t get to heaven on the wings of a lie

Can’t get to heaven but I can try
Can’t get to heaven but I can try
Can’t get to heaven but I can try
La, da da da

Now don’t you know that God made man a master?
(That’s how the story goes)
So let dominion make each man a king
Pluck all the birds from the sky
Suck out the sea til it’s dry
Cause you can’t take it with you, baby, when you die
And there’s a new heaven waiting on the wings of a lie

There ain’t no gold in the sky
There ain’t no silver in a sea sucked dry
There ain’t no sweet revenge that you can buy
La, da da da

The Love Markets image

The Love Markets Seattle, Washington

Weimar Berlin meets New Orleans! The Love Markets bring bite and soul to their modern mashup of bordello brass, funky bass and sultry cabaret rhythm, luring you into alleys haunted by pulp heroines and speakeasies rich with subversion.

"Irresistible.. A deliciously dark carnival."
-Seattle Magazine

"Ruffle-clad ruffians...Angie Louise is a singer- songwriter with fearsome chops."
-City Arts ... more
