Long Way Down (Look What The Cat Drug In) (mp3)

Music and lyrics by Michael Penn

Oh man, look what the cat drug in
It's got the dress -- though the color's gone --
That I gave my one true love on

Oh man, look what the wind blew home
Never had this much stimulation
Since her low down elevation,

But oh, don't look in those eyes
Bluer than blue
Her rule's on the rise
And if I wear apathy's crown
Don't call me highness
It's a long way down

Oh, what terrible things she shows
I'm overwhelmed by rumors this high
And overcome by lows

Oh, what use is it to pretend
That I have the strength for this anymore
This is all in the world that she lives for

But oh, don't look in those eyes
Bluer than blue
Her rule's on the rise
And if I wear apathy's crown
Don't call me highness
'Cause it's a long way down

Now I would suppose
That I'm not the only one.
One never knows...

But I got a feeling she's been sleeping with the whole wide world
I got a feeling she's been sleeping with the whole wide world
I got a feeling she's been sleeping with the whole wide world

Oh, don't look in those eyes
Bluer than blue
Her rule's on the rise
And if I wear apathy's crown
Don't call me highness
It's a long way down
