Esthetics, forget it, remember I said it, what matters the most is what’s in your mind.
Your morals, your ethics, considered pathetic, you read one book now you’re superior? Divine?
Do me a favor, don’t play the world’s savior, I’m taking the night off so why don’t you?
Your other agenda, politics, religion are not very welcome at this point in time
Here’s a toast to you shutting your mouth. Here we go!
Don’t bring me down, just reach high for the sky
Don’t bring me down; I’m on a permanent high
Lay off the worry, the world’s got its jury, things always work out it’s not how it seems
To be in affection, you’ll lose your direction; take a note of what I’m hinting you.
I’ve seen it once, a million times before, they’ll judge you, they’ll punch you, they’ll kick you out the door.
You’ll land flat on your face, you’ll curse the human race, every action has reaction now react to what I say!
Here’s a toast to you shutting your mouth. Here we go!
Don’t bring me down, just reach high for the sky
Don’t bring me down; I’m on a permanent high
You want to be with me?
I don’t want to be with you!
‘Cause you’re always bringing me down!
Don’t bring me down; I like to keep my head high
Don’t bring me down; we’ll never see eye to eye
