Gravity

Gravity plays favorites
I know it cause I saw
Honest to God, officer, it's awful
Down at work
I'm getting too familiar with the floor
Trading in my talents by the mouthful
Hate to break it to you
But it's out of my control
Forces go to work while we are sleeping
If I could attack
With a more sensible approach
Obviously that's what I'd be doing
Right?
Someone tell her
Someone get her off
Now, necks are cracking sideways
Hit me from the back side
I am on the white side
You are on the black side
Cut a piece that's bite size
Shoot me from my good side
If you got a straight line
This would be a good time
Gravity works slowly
If you notice it at all
Some of us are getting mighty lucky
(Aren't we?)
If you had to live with this
You'd rather lie than fall
You think I can't fly?
Well, you just watch me, watch me
Someone tell her
Someone get her off
You can do it, good girl
(Recites ABC's)
Right foot, left foot
That's just the way we showed you
Look, it's in colour
Someone's in our seats, dad
Posture, oh oh oh
Posture, oh
Look, I think he's going now
Oh, my God
I'm gonna see if he's moving, ok?
I think we've lost him
Now, necks are cracking sideways
Hit me from the back side
I am on the white side
You are on the black side
Cut a piece that's bite size
Shoot me from my bad side
If you got a straight line
This would be a good time
The sky is always falling down on me
The sky is always falling, falling
The sky is always falling down on me
So officer, forgive me, please
