"Way Down Now" lyrics

"Way Down Now"

Inside my TV eye, never stop to wonder why
I'm way down now
I'm way down now
Some face just get on the screen
The most honest man I've ever seen
I'm way down now
I'm way down now

Won't you show me somethin' true today?
Come on and show me anythin' but this

She took us by the hand
Hell was the Promised Land
I'm way down now
I'm way down now
I'm lyin' by the road
'Cause she cut off all my clothes
I'm way down now
I'm way down now

Won't you show me somethin' true today?
Come on and show me anythin' but this

Inside my future eye
What I see just makes me cry
I'm way down now
I'm way down now
The clocks will all run backwards
All the sheep will have two heads
And Thursday night and Friday
Will be on Tuesday night instead

And all the times will keep on changin'
And the movement will increase
And there's somethin' about the livin' babe
That sends me off my feet
There's breedin' in the sewers
And the rats are on their way
They're cloudin' up the images of my perfect day

And I know I'm not alone
And I know I'm not alone
And I know I'm not alone

Anything but this
(Can you hear me? I said)
Inside my TV eye
I've never stopped to wonder why
I'm way down now
I'm way down now
Then some faceless get comes on my screen
The most honest man I've ever seen
I'm way down now
I'm way down

Somethin' new
Somethin' true
Somethin' new
Somethin' true
Somethin' new
Somethin' you
Somethin' true
Somethin' new
