I don´t like to take this lyrics so literally, maybe the intention is to question if religion and heaven are really the way we´ve been told it is. Since every man is a sinner, and the rules to be accepted in heaven are so severe, probably nobody would be enough pure and saint to live there.
For me, the song wasn´t made to deny the existence of God, or to encourage people to live their lives recklessly, but to question the rigidity that some religions impose to people. Maybe God himself is more forgiving than the interpretation men gave to his word.
