Falling, falling down again
Watch your, watch your step
They're lying the traps along the avenues
Believe the boulevard's a mess
And they sell us pretty pills to take the pain away
They sell us pretty pills to ease the pain
They let us wash it down with cheap champagne
They sell us pretty pills to ease the pain
But they're not fooling me
Oh oh oh, they're not fooling me
Across the, across the universe
They're calling us by name
But the radio frequency
Is jamming up again
And we can't hear the sound of symphonies
Over some simple melody
The boots, they finally march so willingly
And we can't hear the symphony
Theyre not fooling me
Oh oh, they're not fooling me
Oh oh...
Falling, falling down again
Watch your, watch your step
They're lying the traps along the avenues
Believe the boulevard's a mess
And then they sell us pretty pills to take the pain away
They sell us pretty pills to ease the pain
They let us wash it down, down, down with cheap champagne
They sell us pretty pills to ease the pain
But they're not fooling me
Oh oh, they're not fooling me
