Down the Dip

Lyrics

[Chorus] I've put all the love and beauty In the spirit of the night And I'm holding my ticket tight Stupidity and suffering Are on that ticket, too And I'm goin' down the dip with you [Verse 1] I swear I'm touched but then I'm tired Of everyone who tries to tie me I seem to realize My cup overflows I tumble down and take your hand And no one even knows With the broken backs And the pac-a-macs Sayin' that's the way it goes [Chorus] I've put all the love and beauty In the spirit of the night And I'm holding my ticket tight Stupidity and suffering Are on that ticket, too And I'm goin' down the dip with you [Verse 2] I've been facin' all the red I've been chasin' all the orange While the bourgeois breed All you need is greed And that quiet Remembrance Day I'm gonna pull that chain Till the heavens rain And I see them washed away [Chorus] 'Cause I've bound myself to virtue But I'm bound to make a move If it's less than this you know I can't approve I've been hangin' with the hollow men Who never got the groove Now I'm goin' down the dip with you And I put all the love and beauty In the spirit of the night And I'm holding my ticket tight Stupidity and suffering Are on that ticket, too And I'm goin' down the dip with you
