I heard that you’re home again,
But you don’t look like you’re back to me.
With your focuses changing
Your gaze is transfixed on a point that I can’t often see.

I’ve got your new ties
I’ve got my old knots
You’ve got your inside line
But you’re never happy with what you’ve got.

Careful now, you’re so beautiful
When you’ve convinced yourself
No one else is quite as beautiful

I heard that you’re living well
But you don’t look like you’re living to me
Though the sparkle is gone
Your smile is in place so that everyone watching will see

You’ve got them all convinced
But I know so well
That you can list your friends
But you can’t count on them

Hold it now
You’ve got everyone convinced
That you’re alright,
No one else is quite as vulnerable

As soon as you’ve got it
You want something else.
Is not the sale that you love it’s the sell
It’s not the price, that’s gonna cost you
It’s just the weight, that’s gonna bring you down town
Down town
It’s gonna bring you down down down down town
It’s gonna bring you down town
Down town
It’s gonna bring you down down down down town

Hold it now
You’ve got everyone convinced
That you’re alright,
No one else is quite as vulnerable


Careful now, you’re so beautiful
When you’ve convinced yourself
No one else is quite as beautiful

As soon as you’ve got it
You want something else.
Is not the sale that you love it’s the sell
It’s not the price, that’s gonna cost you
It’s just the weight, that’s gonna bring you down town
Down town
It’s gonna bring you down down down down town

As soon as you’ve got it
You want something else.
Is not the sale that you love it’s the sell
It’s not the price, that’s gonna cost you
It’s just the weight, that’s gonna bring you down!
