When You Fall Down

(album: Hurry Up & Hang Around - 2018)

Somebody hit the button please
I'm on my knees
Strapped in my ejector seat
Gonna hide out in the sky

Somebody light the exit sign
I'm on fire
Ghostwrite a thank you note
And all run for our lives

Hold up
I showed up
Hard to believe
Made up
You stayed up
How could it be?

Wave your arms in the air till you leave the ground
The party starts when you fall down
Throw your cares on the floor and move around
The party starts when you fall down
It's a foolish jest to follow a clown
The party starts when you fall down

I heard a call for a voodoo doll
But after all
Pose for a Polaroid
And all start for the wall
Anybody got a time machine
I am unclean
Step back to move ahead
Or wait it out in between

Played out
You made out
Oh what a scene
Makeup
The gold cup
You're just a screen

Wave your arms in the air till you leave the ground
The party starts when you fall down
Throw your cares on the floor and move around
The party starts when you fall down
It's a foolish jest to follow a clown
The party starts when you fall down
