Elevator

Blame me for the elevator - I know you will
Oh yeah, you will
It's not me who's the operator but you're going down, down, down
You'll be sorry when you're singing all alone
But don't take me up
I'll just fall down once again
Don't take me up
I'll just fall down
Wake me when you're educated - I know you will
Oh yeah, you will
You'll be self-medicated - you're spinning round, and round, and round
You'll be there, but no one will even know your name
But don't take me up
I'll just fall down once again
Don't take me up
I'll only find my way back down
Don't take me up
It's true I've dabbled at times with confident lines
I was half of a man nearly half of the time
In an innocent way, I thought it could stay with us both on the ground
With us fooling around
Let's just stay on the ground
Let's stay fooling around on the ground
Don't take me up
I'll just fall down like I knew that I would.
Don't take me up
I'll only find my way back down
Don't take me up
I'll just fall down
