Michael Penn - Long Way Down (Look What the Cat Drug In) Lyrics

Oh man,

look what the cat drug in

It's got the dress, tho 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

since her low down elevation, but

Oh, don't look in those eyes

bluer than blue

her rule's on the rise

and if I wear apathy's crown

don't call me higness

it's a long 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

her rule's on the rise

and if I wear apathy's crown

don't call me highness

('cause) it's a long way down



Now I would suppose

that I'm not the only one

and one never knows...

but I got a feeling she's been

sleeping with the whole wide world



Oh, don't look in those eyes

bluer than blue

her rule's on the rise

and if I wear apathy's crown

don't call me highness

it's a long way down
