The Rapture Came and No One Went

A satirical country song: what if the Rapture was real, but no one qualified?

RAPTURE

The Rapture came and no one went.
The world's the same, you still owe rent.
We're all to blame--that's Heaven-sent.
The Rapture came, oh Lord, and no one went.

The faithful flock, got cause to vent.
They pitched a huge revival tent.
They spent their cash and lives on this event.
The Rapture came, oh Lord, and no one went.

Where's that salvation from the sky?
God's golden chariot passed you by.
Got lots of time to sit and wonder why
ain't no salvation from the sky.

How can I talk you off that ledge
when you been crawling toward the edge?
Eternal life's a trumped-up pledge;
your good behavior, just a hedge.

Steve Schlich, 2011
