Lyrics Soul Asylum

Soul Asylum

Down on Up to Me

Dear stranger to authority

Welcome to the minority

It's not someplace you have to go

It's not something you have to know

Don't do this, don't touch that, hey

Draw the line, burn this down, I'll speak my mind

Maybe I'll wait for another time

Sometimes good comes to those who wait

Sometimes it makes you hesitate

Some folks fight for humanity

Some folks fight for their sanity

Don't do this, don't do that, don't try this, don't touch that, hey

Do it for the last time

By the weight of the world coming down

Down on, down on up to me

Down on up to me, wait for another time

When you look down on me I get so uppity, hey

Starting my own army, just me and my friends

Said you better get ready

(Ha, ha, ha)

Coming down, down on, down on up to me, down on up to me

Coming down, down on, down on up to me

Down on up to—

Though it might just come down to trust

It sometimes just comes down to lust

That's just one person's point of view
