SOUTH OF HEAVEN

A monster bought a bicycle
Assembled from spare parts
Just like him
Just like him
It was brown and red and rust and chrome
Squeaky-wheeled, but still it rode
Just like him
Just like him
And just like a monster
He rode it into town
As the tower clock struck twelve
With nobody around
And he rode around the fountain
Singing to the wind
Dreaming bout somebody just like him
Just like a monster

An angel had a magic wand
Radiant and gold
Just like her
Just like her
It was custom made to guarantee
Ever want and every need
Just like her
Just like her
And just like an angel
She dropped it from her cloud
And she had to sail down gently
To a quiet little town
And riding round the fountain
She saw a funny sight
The only thing she'd wanted all her life
But nothing like an angel

South of heaven
North of hell
We live
Share my life
Share this heart
I give you
South of heaven
Paradise is found
If you look around
Could you help me look around?

The monster rode his bicycle
Assembled from spare parts
Round and round
And all alone he sang his song
As something kept him pushing on
Round and round
Round and round
And just then the monster
He saw an angel bright
As he pedaled past his shadow
On a black and moonless night
And the face that he'd been given
Twisted to a grin
There'd never be nobody just like him
Said the angel
