Want to rock on? Molly and Malic want to jam with you and are teaching a Two-Week Pop Waits Devising Workshop called WE COULD BE HEROES. Check it out here: (http://neofuturists.org/workshops/we-could-be-heroes/) LYRICS: Seems like Heaven's a stage in Chicago Where the seats are all velvet, or they're busted and old With our bodies and hearts We lay bare our parts If there's only three people, or the whole house is sold. We say "I think something's up with the rigging. I felt that the timing of my death scene ain't right I sure sang off key And I twisted my knee I hope I don't suck so bad tomorrow night." Maybe Heaven's a ride through Chicago In the dark dead of winter, we are breathless and bold The angel­witch song Of your name on my tongue As we shout to each other on our bikes in the cold We say: "Hell yeah, we rode in this bullshit" As we peel off our layers, bodies giving off steam "We don't need a car To get us to the bar." And we know that the choice was either bus fare or Beam. I think Heaven's a bar in Chicago Where T Bone and Erin and Molly all go And Jen, Rob, and Joe And all the others we know Sit with their loved ones, asking "How was the show?" We say: "Running crew all got out early We hit all our notes, and our muscles aren't sore We were oversold by ten We all made the rent again Everything is perfect, and we don't hurt anymore."
