Up or Down

Now where are you
When the planet turned blue
Now you're looking all sad, you know, it isn't that bad
There's a place you can be,
Seven wonders to see
If you want to be free, just leave behind what you had
I hear you singing, I
Want to go
Where there's no more pain and no brain pollution
Only life; a soul substitution
I want to know
If we're up or down, down, down, down
Where are you?
Would you put on these shoes?
Would you put on this tie and make society cry?
Could you be like me?
Could you catch this disease,
Spit in your eyes and keep you down on your knees?
You say you want to hide away from yesterday
From the newspaper houses
And the government louses, you want to find the time
Leave the world behind
There's a new generation
Don't be left at the station with me
'Cause I
Want to go
Where there's no more pain and no brain pollution
Only life is soul substitution
I want to know
Where there's no one waiting for the solution
Only life's a soul substitution, I
I want to know
If we're up or down, down, down, down, down
Yeah, I
I want to know
If we're up or down
Now here's your wonderland
The psychedelic sound
Is slipping through your open mind and slipping through your hands
Now where's your queen today?
Her party's underway
A caterpillar's higher than a kite that's where he'll stay
So what you've got to lose?
You know that we can choose
If we're up or down, down, down, down, down
'Cause I
Want to go
I hear you singing, I
Want to know
If we're up or down, down, down, down, down
'Cause I
Want to go
Where the spaceship lands, you know
I'm going home
I want to know
Is it up or down?
