Down So Long

Boop boop bee doo, yeah

Sun sets 'cross the ocean
I'm a thousand miles from anywhere
My pocketbook and my heart both just got stolen
And that sun act like she don't even care

The 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
A cordless telephone for every corner of my room
Got everybody but you
Telling me what to do

But I've been down so long
Ooh, it can't be longer still
I've been down so long
That the end must be drawing near

I look to everybody but me
To answer my prayers
'Til I saw an angel in a bathroom
Who said she saw no one worth saving, anywhere

And a blind man on the corner
Said it's simple, like flipping a coin
Don't matter what side it lands on
If it's someone else's dime

But I've been down so long
Ooh, it can't be longer still
We've been down so long
That the end must be drawing near

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

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

Ooh ee oh ee oh
Ooh ee oh ee oh
Ooh ee oh ee oh oh

Ooh ee oh ee oh
Ooh ee oh ee oh
Ooh ee oh ee oh oh

Ooh ee oh ee oh
Ooh ee oh ee oh
Ooh ee oh ee oh oh
