Big dog bites the bone
life's too short to take all this
not true when what's more:
life's too short to mind
just keep on with
the sweet up and down
Unturning her cheek
inside-out, her neat little pose
dirty, little girl
climbs out of the hole in her own
in this sweet up and down
I believe in love
but believe it's my heart that keeps turning me down
i believe in love
i think it's just fine
oh, the sweet up and down
Big pig turns to me
pig he needs to eat like us all
not far from the beast
man sits down to feast on this part
of the sweet up and down
I believe in love
and believe it's my heart that keeps turning me down
i believe in love
i think it's just fine
on the sweet up and down
but...
Up and down, inside out
outside win some you lose some
you win for us all
up and down we go
bad times choke us all once or twice
on this sweet up and down
I believe in love
but think nothing about it when you're not around
i believe in love
i think you're just fine
on the sweet up and down
I believe in love
but believe in my heart that keeps turning me down
i believe in love
i think you're just fine
on the sweet up and down...
