Falling Down

[Chorus 1]
Is this world spinning round?
Has this ship run aground?
What's that shape, what's that sound?
That's just me falling down
Some of us are free, some are bound
Some will swim, some will drown
Some of us are saints, some are clowns
Just like me, they're falling down

[Verse 1]
Well I lied to the nation while my reputation ran dry
From my lungs to my liver, I clung to the riverbank's side
Yeah, well I'm back in the water, doing what I ought to
Trying to lead an ordinary life

[Chorus 2]
Is this world spinning round?
Has this ship run aground?
What's that shape, what's that sound?
That's just me falling down
Some of us are green, some are brown
Some are lost, some are found
Sight unseen baby, sound on sound
Pray for me, I'm falling down

[Verse 2]
I was lost in the jungle, crossed over enemy lines
Well I got me a red nose by sleeping under hedgerows at night
Yeah, well I tried levitation, flying in formation
Heaven knows the weight of this crime

[Chorus 3]
Is this, is this world spinning round?
Has this ship run aground?
What's that shape, what's that sound?
That's just me falling down
La, la, la, la-la-la
La, la, la, la-la-la
La, la, la, la-la-la
La, la, la, la-la-la

[Outro]
Falling down, falling down
Falling down, falling down
Falling down, falling down
Falling down, falling down
Falling down
