Up and Down
There's only one part to Heaven
And seven parts to Hell
A thousand kinds of demon
And one kind of angel
There's no room in the Underworld
So Purgatory was made
There's a billion kinds of sinner
And a hundred kinds of saint
Virtue is it's own reward
But Gluttony is fruitful
Wrath will get you what you want
And Chastity's untruthful
Purity is fine for some
And undoubtedly less bad
But Lust and Greed is twice as fun
And only half as hard
There's only one part to Heaven
And seven parts to Hell
There's a reason why Mankind
Chose Virtue to dispel.
