Down - Basement Tape

It’s like being woken

In the middle of the night

You have a funny feeling

That things aren’t right

When they take you down

You find yourself in a room

With the walls all grey

And the only conversation

Is have a nice day

When they take you down

You find that you’ve got time

For just one call

You call up your girl

But she’s not at home

‘Cause they’ve taken her down

When they take you down

You tell them that you

Don’t remember signing up

They’ll tell you that it life

And you’re just our of luck

When they take you down

You tell them that you

Never want to be one of those

They’ll tell you it’s life

And that’s just the way it goes

When they take you down

Have you ever been down

Where the dead men go

Let me tell you man

Their hearts are colder than snow

When they take you down

Down down down…
