Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Good girls go to heaven
Good girls go to heaven
Good girls go to heaven (But the bad girls go everywhere)
Good girls go to heaven (Yeah, they might get into heaven)
Good girls go to heaven (But the bad girls go everywhere)
[Verse 2]
When the wind is howling through your window pane
It's not the only pain of the night
You're burning up in your bed, you've got a fever of love
And there's not an antibody in sight
[Verse 3]
Hey, Jenny, Jenny, why are you crying?
There's a beauty of a moon in the sky
But I guess when you've been leading such a sheltered life
You never lift your head and look so high
[Verse 4]
You don't have a lot
But it's all that you've got and you can turn it into more than it seems
Just give it a shot
Fantasize every movement and imagine every inch of your dream
[Verse 5]
No one said it had to be real, (Had to be real)
But it's got to be something you can reach out and feel now
[Verse 6]
It ain't right, it ain't fair
Castles fall in the sand and we fade in the air
And the good girls go to heaven but the bad girls go everywhere
Ooh now, good girls go to heaven but the bad girls go everywhere
Somebody told me so (Somebody told me, somebody told me)
Somebody told me, now I know every night in my prayer
I'll be praying that the good girls go to heaven but the bad girls go everywhere
[Verse 7]
Ooh when the sweat is sizzling on your skin in the dark
And you're desperate now for somewhere to turn
Every muscle in rebellion, every nerve is on edge
And every limb has been erotic-ly burned
[Verse 8]
Hey, Johnny, Johnny, why are you shaking
When a boy should do whatever he can?
You've been nothing but an angel every day of your life
And now you wonder what it's like to be damned
[Verse 9]
You don't have a lot
But it's all that you've got and you can turn it into more than it seems
Just give it a shot
Fantasize every movement and imagine every inch of your dream
[Verse 10]
No one said it had to be real (Had to be real)
But it's got to be something you've been wanting to feel now
[Verse 11]
It ain't right, it ain't fair
Castles fall in the sand and we fade in the air
And the good boys go to heaven but the bad boys go everywhere
Good boys go to heaven but the bad boys go everywhere
Somebody told me so (Somebody told me, somebody told me)
Somebody told me, now I know every night in my prayer
I'll be praying that the good boys go to heaven but the bad boys go everywhere
[Verse 12]
Every time I try and dream you
I can't believe how hard it's been to
Conjure up your face and trace your body in the air
Oh the seconds go on for ever
But the thirds and the fourth ones are even better
Every time I do it just a little bit longer
Every time I dream, it's just a little bit stronger than real life
[Verse 13]
No-one said it had to be real (Had to be real)
But it's got to be something you can reach out and feel now
[Verse 14]
It ain't right, it ain't fair
Castles fall in the sand and we fade in the air
And the good girls go to heaven but the bad girls go everywhere
Ooh now, good girls go to heaven but the bad girls go everywhere
Somebody told me so (Somebody told me, somebody told me)
Somebody told me, now I know every night in my prayer
I'll be praying that the good girls go to heaven but the bad girls go everywhere
[Verse 15]
Good girls go to heaven, bad girls go everywhere
Good girls go to heaven, bad girls go everywhere
Good girls go to heaven, bad girls go everywhere
Good girls go to heaven, bad girls go everywhere
Good girls go to heaven, bad girls go everywhere
Good girls go to heaven, bad girls go everywhere
Good girls go to heaven, bad girls go everywhere
