down on pine street theres a sign that only leads you in the wrong way
'cause 15th is the high road, it could spare your soul from broadway
but you won't walk it until you know
well i know of a place where we can go forget it all
in 20 minute intervals, a bar bathroom stall
is awaiting so lets use it until its gone
we'll abuse it until its dawn
we'll be saved, for a moment we'll have freedom
floating high on a cloud to the good lord's kingdom
until we hear the sound
of someone sayin everything that goes up must come down
the sun is rising now but we don't wanna hit the floor
and i know just where we can go, we only have to buzz the door of my old friend and
we'll be feelin fine again
we got money left to burn and time to throw away
who cares about tommorow? we're livin in the day
but now the night has already come and gone
now the night has already given itself up to dawn
but i was saved, for a moment it was freedom
floating high on a cloud to the good lord's kingdom
until i heard the sound
of someone sayin everything that goes up must come down
