All the people in your life say you're down

And the strangers in the night say you're down

And the loonies on the right say you're down and you're down

And the ambulances sigh that you're down

And the traffic speeding by says you're down

And the people in your life say you're down and you're down



Hey you chase the day away

Hey you draw the blinds and blow your mind away



And there's a sadness in your style

And there's a blankness in your smile

And the people in the park say you're down

And the strangers in the dark say you're down

And the pissheads in the bars say you're down

And the audiences cry that you're down

And the ambulances sigh that you're down

And the boyfriends in your life say you're down and you're down



Hey you chase the day away

Hey you draw the blinds and blow your mind away



And there's a sadness in your style

And there's a blankness in your smile

Hey you chase the day away

Hey you draw the blinds and blow your mind away

And there's a sadness in your style

And there's a madness in your smile
