"Ups & Downs" lyrics - SAVES THE DAY
And I'm gonna get to the bottom of this
Gonna peel back my skin
And look at myself shaking and shivering
And I'll get the rope from in the house
Survey the scene
Finding two of the tallest trees
And I'll tie myself up
Above the cool earth
To dangle in the twilight
Oo-oh-oh-oh-oh
And I'm gonna get to the bottom of this
Gonna peel back my skin
And look at myself shaking and shivering
And as my skin collects in a pile on the ground
I'll radiate heat
And turn off my head
And just pretend that I don't exist
That I'll see clearly to the end
Of the ropes that I've been hanging from (woa-oh-oh)
As they loosen from the trees
I plummet to the ground to be impaled
And turned around (turn me right around)
Finally free from the ups and downs
[2x:]
And I'm gonna get to the bottom of this
Gonna peel back my skin
And look at myself shaking and shivering
