You telling lies thinking I can’t see
You don’t cry ’cause you’re laughing at me
I’m down (I’m really down)
I’m down (down on the ground)
I’m down (I’m really down)
How can you laugh when you know I’m down
(How can you laugh) when you know I’m down
Man buys ring woman throws it away
Same old thing happens every day
I’m down (I’m really down)
I’m down (down on the ground)
I’m down (I’m really down)
How can you laugh when you know I’m down
(How can you laugh) when you know I’m down
We’re all alone and there’s nobody else
You still moan: “Keep your hands to yourself”
I’m down (I’m really down)
I’m down (down on the ground)
I’m down (I’m really down)
How can you laugh when you know I’m down
(How can you laugh) when you know I’m down
Don’t you know that I’m down (I’m really down)
Don’t you know that I’m down (I’m really down)
Down on the ground (I’m really down)
Don’t you know that I’m down (I’m really down)
Down, down, down
