CHORUS: been down so long that it looks like up to me
I've been down so long it looks like up to me
I got a date tonight, I think her name is misery

I fell into a pothole as I walked down the street
I fell into a pothole as I walked down the street
I thought to crawl out but I was in my stocking feet

CHORUS

She said, "I love you, honey, but I just can't be with you."
She said, "I love you, baby, but I just can't be with you."
I said, "I'll make you hate me, and maybe you'll be in the mood."

CHORUS
