May I be in heaven half an hour before the devil knows I'm dead.

Listen here, Major, you're a special kind of dense. The joke is that the person wants to get to heaven before the devil knows they've died. It's like they're trying to sneak in before the devil can try to stop them. It plays with the idea of afterlife and the battle between good and evil, but in a funny way. You know, like you trying to get out of a boring conversation.
