There is a barbershop song/arrangement which leaves the "punch line" to the very end:


EVERYBODY WANTS TO GO TO HEAVEN
Composed and Arranged by Louis P. Perry (Lou), 1983

There was a little white church in the valley, all covered with ivy vines,
All the people were dressed in their Sunday best and sitting in the pews on time.
The preacher got ready for his sermon, the inspiring message of the day,
He held up his hand and then he began, and this is what he had to say:

[CHORUS]
"Ev'rybody wants to go to Heaven, to that home up in the sky,
Ev'rybody want to see the pearly gates in the sweet bye and bye.
Ev'rybody want to go walking on the streets all paved with gold,
And eat milk and honey at the table of the Lord and be a member of the Heavenly fold.
You all go to church on Sunday, and you like to lend a helping hand,
And ev'rybody's nice to his neighbor, so he can make it to the promised land,
Ev'rybody want to cross the Jordan to that mansion in the sky."
I said, "Ev'rybody wants to go to Heaven,
But nobody wants to die!"
