Down makes some dangerous suggestions
Taunts you with those sweet depressing questions
You can tell yourself to quit
But you really must admit
That there’s something irresistible in down

When you're up down doesn’t matter a damn
You keep thinking Wow! How lucky I am
Then you trip or slip on misery’s scam
And you can’t help falling
The grave is calling

It’s swell to do a little slumming
You think that sad is so becoming
'Til the needle stars to spin
And the funnel sucks you in
And you wake up in the scary part of town
Finding something irresistible in down

You continue to enjoy yourself
While trying to destroy yourself
There's something irresistible in down
