Michael Penn Lyrics
"Long Way Down (Look What The Cat Drug In)"

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
til her low down elevation
but oh don't look in those eyes
bluer than blue
rules on the rise
and if i wear apathy's crown
don't call me highness
it's a long a 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
rules on the rise
and if wear apathy's crown
don't call me highness
cause it's a long way down
i would suppose that i'm not the only one
one never knows
and i've got a feeling she's been sleepin' with the whole wide world (3x)
oh don't look in those eyes
bluer than blue
rules on the rise
and if i wear apathy's crown
don't call me highness
it's a long way down
it's a long way down.
