Upside Of Being Down

I don't have to put on make up
I don't have to do my hair
An'd when I open up that Hagen Daz
Well, I don't have to share
An' there's no one there to notice
If I gain a couple a-pounds:
An' that's the upside of bein' down

Well, I've got twice the closet space
That I can fill up with new shoes
And I can paint the bedroom pretty pink
With lacy curtains if I choose
An' I won't have to deal with fishin' gear
Muddy boots laying round:
That's the upside of being down

Days when I'm feelin' low, yeah, I got 'em:
When my tears won't stop fallin' to the ground
But there's only one place left to go when you're at the bottom
An' that's the upside of being down

I can let my dog jump on the bed
An' curl up next to me at night
An' I don't have to lose an argument
'Cause now I'm always right
An' I can dance with who I want to
When I go out on the town:
An' that's the upside of being down

Days when I'm feelin' low, yeah, I got 'em:
When my tears won't stop fallin' to the ground
But there's only one place left to go when you're at the bottom
An' that's the upside of being down

Yeah, that's the upside of being down
