I used to be up in flames
I used to be so creative
I used to have a lot of ideas
When I was just a lil kid

Now, every day I walk the same walk
Every day I talk the same nonsense
My life is a continuous chain
That eats itself again and again

And it gets me down
It gets me down
It gets me down
It gets me down

Every day I hear the same song
Which I can't help singing along to
And even though I get off the lane
My destination's always the same

So it gets me down
It gets me down
It gets me down
It gets me down

It gets me down, it gets me down
And I don't know what to do
It gets me down, it gets me down
And I find it hard to change
It gets me down, it gets me down
And I'm coming through

'Cause it gets me down
It gets me down
It gets me down
It gets me down
