Down So Long

"Down So Long"


Boop Boop Be Do Yeah!
The sun sets across the ocean
I'm a thousasnd miles from anywhere

A pocketbook and my heart
Both just got stolen
And that sun acts
like she don't even care

Wind blows cold
when you reach the top
It feels like someone's face
is stuck to the bottom of my shoe

I got a plastic Jesus
and a cordless telephone
Everybody but you
telling me what to do

Well I've been down so long
Oh it can't be longer still
And I've been down for so long
That the end must be drawing near

I looked to everybody but me
To answer my prayers
Til I saw an angel in the bathroom
Who said she saw nobody worth saving anywhere

And the blind man on the corner said
"It's Simple, like flipping a coin
Don't matter what side it lands on
It's somebody else's dime"

I take a trip
I catch a train
I catch a plane
Got a ticket in my hand
And then a fat man takes my money
And like cattle we all stand

We've been down so long
Oh it can't be longer still
We've been down so long
That the end must be
I know the end must be
Oh I know the end
Must be drawing near
