Madeleine Peyroux - Down On Me

My job's gone missing, insurance is a fail
Credit cards stopped coming, my attorney's in jail
Just broke a law I never heard of before
Landlord thinks I'm made and he bust down my door

Used to think I was pretty damn smart
Smart enough to see I'm falling apart
I keep going down down down (down down down down)
It's all coming down on me

My little bit of self esteem has gone up in flames
Teenagers getting wealthy playing video games
The local beat cop keeps giving me that look
Don't even know what drugs I just took

The more I run the more I end up where I start
Stuck in the same place tearing myself apart
I keep going down down down (down down down down)
It's all coming down on me

I remember back in Waikiki
Doing the Limbo by the sea
How low can you go?
The cabana boys teased
Now I'm down on my knees

I can't keep this up but I hear it's worse to stop
If I dry out lay me to rest at the corner coffeeshop
I don't feel brave and I don't feel free
My only chance at winning is the lottery

I used to see myself above it, set myself apart
Now I'm stealing mini-vodkas from the Mighty Mart
I keep going down down down (down down down down)
It's all coming down on me
I'm goin' down down down (down down down down)
It's all coming down on me
I'm goin' down down down (down down down down)
It's all coming down on me
(Down down down down)
(Down down down down)
Mm, how low can you go?
(Down down down down)
(Down down down down)
No more
(Down down down down)
