Down Lyrics

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 mind say you're down, and you're down

hey, you chase the day away,
hey, you draw the blinds and blow your mind away,
there's a sadness in your eyes,
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 you're down
and the audiences cry that you're down,
and the ambulances sigh that you're down
and the traffic speeding by says you're down, and you're down

hey, you chase the day away
hey, you draw the blinds and blow your mind away,
there's a sadness in your life,
there's a madness in your smile
colours, same as you and me

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

Beautiful... makes me think about the very nature of being down. Songs like this are usually such a no-brainer as everyone can identify with them, as everyone feels down sometimes... But this gets it so much better than most.It baffles me that Suede aren't as commonly played as other big britpop bands.
