Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Burn down all your idols, destroy your idols Create a scene There goes all your reason, it's helter skelter It's not a dream Come down from the altar, remove your blindfold What do you see? Nothing left to do here, there's nothing new here It's all the same You're going down, down, down, how low can you go? x3 Hare, Hare Krishna, was that your sister A covergirl? A wasted primadonna, she lost her way here She disappeared Come back to your altar, and build a fire It's getting cold Nothing stops the rain here, there's not a soul here You're all alone You're going down, down, down, how low can you go? You're going down, down, down, how low can you go? You're going down, down, down, how low can you go? Here we go now Build a new religion, no inhibition No alibi Televised confession, a true obsession Is on the rise Miscommunication, disinformation A perfect waste Bite the sacred apple Suck the poison Enjoy the taste You're going down, down, down How low can you go? You're going down, down, down How low can you go? You're going down, down, down You're going down, down, down You're going down, down, down How low can you go? How low can you go? How low can you go? How low can you go?
