Underground
Ben Folds Five
I was never cool in school,
I'm sure you dont remember me.
And now it's been ten years,
I'm still wondering who to be,
But I love to mix in circles,
Cliques and social coteries,
That's me!
Hand me my nose ring, (Can we be happy?)
Show me the mosh pit, (Can we be happy?)
We can be happy underground.
Who's got the looks?
Who's got the brains?
Who's got everything?
I've got this pain in my heart, that's all.
Hey you, with the long and lonely face
Oh, there's gotta be something else,
Let me tell you something else,
There was a girl who passed me by,
She gave a smile, but I was shy
And looked down, so down.
Don't look there no, go, go underground
Now, now, there's a place to go
(Ooo) It's the morning now, it's the evening, it's everything
I click my heels and I'm there.
(Underground, underground, ooh)
Everything's heavy underground
(Underground, underground, ooh) You been kicked around,
Did life bring you down here?
Everything's heavy underground
And we'll be decked in all black,
Slamming the pit fantastic,
Officer friendly's little boy's got a mohawk
And he knows just where we're coming from.
It's industrial, work it underground
Get down (Yeah!), get down (Yeah!), get down (Yeah!)
(Underground, underground, ooh)
Everything's heavy underground.
(Underground, underground, ooh) You been kicked around,
Did life bring you down here?
Everything's heavy underground.
We can be happy, we can be happy, we can be happy underground.
Oh we can, oh we can, oh we can be!
Everything's heavy!
(Underground, underground, ooh) You been kicked around
Did life bring you down here?
Everything's heavy underground.
Bye-bye!
Oh we can, oh we can, oh we can be!
(Everything's heavy underground) Oh we can, oh we can, oh we can be!
(Everything's heavy underground) Oh we can, oh we can, oh we can be!
Oh we can, oh we can, oh we can be!
Everything's heavy underground,
Everything's heavy underground,
Everything's heavy underground.
