Lyrics Yo La Tengo

Yo La Tengo

Upside-Down

Mary calls from far away

Sure there is another

Walks the floor cause she can't settle down

Waiting for the phone to ring

Stuck inside the bedroom

Drinks too much to make the room spin round

When she sits down

No one knows the world is upside-down

Watches how it spins around

No one knows the world is upside-down

Knowing if she'll just admit

One revealing detail

She can't hide her state of mind behind

She sits down

No one knows the world is upside-down

Watches how it spins around

No one knows the world is upside-down

Everybody wants to be the lucky guy

They're just uncertain how to please her

Everybody stops to see the setting sun

They're not just looking for the time

Caring not what people say

At other people's parties

Mary finds someone and settles down

She sits down

No one knows the world is upside-down

Watches how it spins around

No one knows the world is upside-down
