Roddy Frame - Down the Dip lyrics

Chorus: I put all the love and beauty In the spirit of the night And I'm holding my ticket tight Stupidity and suffering Are on that ticket, too And I'm going down the dip with you I swear I'm touched but then I'm tired Everyone who tries to tie me 'cause I seem to realize That my cup overflows And then I tumble down and take your hand And no one even knows With the broken backs And the pack of macks Sayin' that's the way it goes Chorus 'cause I been facin' all the red Me, I'm chasin' all the orange And while the bourgeois breed All you need is greed And that quiet remembrance day I'm gonna pull that chain 'til the heavens rain And I see them wash away 'cause I've bound myself to virtue But I'm bound to be amused If it's less than this You know I can't approve I've been hangin' with the hollow men Who never got the groove And I'm going down the dip with you Chorus
