THE BOOMTOWN RATS
"Up Or Down"
(Pete Briquette / Simon Crowe)

Don't know which way I'm goin'
Don't know which way is up or down
Don't know which way I'm going
And my feet don't even touch the ground

There's people laughin' at me
There's people staring at me
Don't know which way I'm goin
And my feet don't even touch the ground

Watch me climbing up
Then see me coming down
Which way is up?
I don't know where I am

I feel my back is aching
My ears are ringing
There's a pain behind my eyes, yeah
My hands are shaking
My skin is flaking
And my mouth has all gone dry

Watch me climbing up
See me falling down
Which way is up?
I don't know where I am

Lying in the sun
It's just another lazy day
And I'm not having fun
I am running in the race
Looking all around
Nothing ever seems to change
