Down Lyrics
[Intro: Andre Gibson]
Down
To the ground, baby
You sure know how to break it all down
To the ground, baby
Down
To the ground, baby
You sure know how to break it all down
To the ground, baby
Sure know how to break it all down
[Verse 1: Alexis Taylor & Andre Gibson]
You've got to work me until you get what you need
(Sure know how to break it all down)
You've got to work it until it breaks, don't you see?
(Sure know how to break it all down)
You've got to work me until I'm starting to bleed
(Sure know how to break it all down)
Reset, erase me 'til I lose sight of my dreams
(Sure know how to break it all down)
You've got to need me 'cause I mean nothing to me
(Sure know how to break it all down)
You've got to work me into the dust you can't see
(Surе know how to break it all-)
[Chorus: Alexis Taylor]
I'm on the edgе of just screaming
Screaming out your name
But then I know that I'm dreaming
Dreaming my life away
Well, someone just had to stop me
Take me out of the frame
[Post-Chorus: Andre Gibson]
Sure know how to break it all down
Sure know how to break it all down
[Verse 2: Alexis Taylor & Andre Gibson]
All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy, oh, boy
(Sure know how to break it all down)
But if this is working, it makes my play null and void
(Sure know how to break it all down)
Until I met you, I never worked for one day
(Sure know how to break it all down)
But now we're working, this work is starting to pay
(Sure know how to break it all down)
You've got to use me until I run out of juice
(Sure know how to break it all down)
But don't replace me, maybe a screw has come loose
[Chorus: Alexis Taylor & Andre Gibson]
I'm on the edge of just screaming
Screaming out your name
But then I know that I'm dreaming
Dreaming my life away
Well, someone just had to stop me
Take me out of the frame
(Down
To the ground baby)
[Outro: Alexis Taylor & Andre Gibson]
Break it down, don't bring me down, my baby
Break it down, right to the ground, my love
Break it down, don't bring me down, my baby
Break it down, right to the ground, my love
(Sure know how to break it all down)

Alexis Taylor:
This was the first track we made, as Joe [Goddard] came into the studio with a sample from Universal Togetherness Band’s track ‘More Than Enough’ at the start of our session, and we all got to work right away responding to it. The song summarises what it feels like to be back togethe...
