Is this world spinning round

Has this ship run aground

What's that shape

What's that sound

That's just me falling down

Some of us are free

Some are bound

Some will swim

Some will drown

Some of us are saints

Some are clowns

Just like me they're falling down

Well I lied to the nation

While my reputation ran dry

From my lungs to my liver

I clung to the river bank's side

Yeah well I'm back in the water

Doing what I oughta

Trying to lead an ordinary life

Is this world spinning round

Has this ship run aground

What's that shape

What's that sound

That's just me falling down

Some of us are green

Some are brown

Some are lost

Some are found

Sight unseen baby

Sound on sound

Pray for me I'm falling down

I was lost in the jungle

Crossed over enemy lines

Well I got me a red nose

By sleeping under hedgerows at night

Yeah well I tried levitation

Flying in formation

Heaven kows the weight of this crime

Is this

Is this world spinning round

Has this ship run aground

What's that shape

What's that sound

That's just me falling down

La, la, la, la, la, la

La, la, la, la, la, la

La, la, la, la, la, la

La, la, la, la, la, la

Falling down

Falling down
