 down, down, down...Oh it hurts to be that way
 Down, down, down...

Oh it hurts to know the bad kinda fella

 Somebody cut off her feet,
 Now the jelly rolls in the street

If you want to see me
    Sorry but I'm not around
    If you want to be me turn around 
    I'm by the window where the light is

She's my best friend
 Certainly not the average girl
 She's my best friend
 Understands me when I'm fallin' (fallin')
