I went to see my sister,
she was staying with a friend
Who had turned into a preacher
to save the world from sin
He said first deny your body,
then learn to submit
Pray to be made worthy,
and tithe your ten percent
I said is this all there is,
just the letter of the law
Something's wrong
I went to see my brother
on the 32nd floor
of a building down on Wall Street,
you could hear the futures roar,
he said here we make decisions
and we trade commodities,
so if you tell me where
there's famine,
I can't make you guarantees
I said, is this all there is?
Power to the strong,
something's wrong
Something's wrong in heaven tonight
You can almost hear them cry
Angels to the left and the right
I'm just saying what a love, love,
what a love, love, what a love,
love
I went to see my neighbor,
he'd been taken to a home
For the week and the discarded,
who had no place to go
He said, here I lack for nothing,
I am fed and I am clothed
But at times I miss the freedom
I used to know
I said, is this all there is?
When your usefulness is gone,
something's wrong
If there's something wrong in living tonight,
you can almost hear them cry.
Angels to the left and the right,
saying what about the love,
what about the love,
what about the love?
I looked into the mirror,
proud as I could be
And I saw my pointing finger,
pointing back at me
Saying who named you accuser?
Who gave you the scales?
On my head in sorrow
I could almost feel the nails
I said this is how it is
To be crucified and judged
without love
There's something wrong
in heaven tonight,
you can almost hear them cry
Angels to the left and the right,
singing word of love, word of love,
word of love, word of love
There's something wrong
in heaven tonight,
you can almost hear them cry
The angels to the left and the right
Singing what a love, what a love,
what a love
Someone's gonna live him tonight
You can almost hear him cry
The angels to the left and the right
Saying what a love, what a love,
what a love
You
