Been trying to get to heaven
Since she was eleven
The girl with yellow hair who said she never really wanted to
Go to school, go to school
The girl with yellow hair who said she never really wanted to
Go to school, go to school
Break the rule
Been trying to get to heaven
Since she was eleven
The girl with yellow hair who stayed in bed and never wanted to
Go to work, go to work
The girl with yellow hair who stayed in bed and never needed to
Go to church, go to church
Won't go to church
She's the one who can save your soul
Oh
Oh, she can destroy it
She's the girl who can help the world
But she just did nothing
Been trying to get to heaven
Since she was eleven
Been trying to get to heaven
Since she was eleven
The girl with yellow hair who said she never really wanted to
Go to school, go to school
The girl with yellow hair who stayed in bed and never wanted to
Go to work, go to the church

The girl with yellow hair said she never really wanted to get out of bed and get dressed to go to school
