Glimpse Into Hell Lyrics - Singles - Melissa Mcclelland

There's a place in the back of the stall 

Where the plaster's so thin there's a crack in the wall 

And if you bend to the ground 

And squint really well 

They say that you're bound to catch a glimpse into hell 

As the smoke clears away for the view 

All the people are waiting lined up in the pew 

And the sermon begins 

And he's gritting his teeth 

'Cause the music's kicked in with a pulsating beat 

Good folks and sad blokes 

Sunday afternoon 

Hymn notes and cheap pokes 

In the back of the dark empty room 

There's a sickening smell to this room 

Of whiskey stained breath and the cheapest perfume 

There's a girl in her bra 

And sex in your pants 

And she's sucking a straw as she begs you to dance 

Downtown and down low 

Sunday afternoon 

Highlights and high hopes 

An old rusty cross on the roof 

They come to this place to abide 

Shuffling to each side 

The better extreme 

A flash and the wink of an eye 

A 'Hail Mary' and sigh 

An angel's bad dream 

There's a place in the back of the stall 

Where the plaster's so thin there's a crack in the wall 

And if you bend to the ground and squint really well 

They say that you're bound to catch a glimpse into hell
