Upside Down

Upside Down

Music and Lyrics by Mat Greaves

Ten of Swords and the Tower too… Go!

When I was young, man said to me
“Gogu, life will never be easy.
Watch your neck, watch it with both eyes.

Whether lover or a friend,
All good things must come to an end.”
And my friend, that is the worst advice.

Hey!

There was man, said he was my best friend.
Said we’d be friends ‘til the end.
One day him up and disappears.

Where is he, where did he go?
I cares as much now as I know
I don’t need a coward full of fear.

Hey!

And so…

Ten of Swords and the Tower too
Here you go it’s
Death and the Devil that I draw for you,
And for me…
the Magician, the Hanging Man, and the Clown

And the Two of Cups
Drawn upside down, upside down
Upside down
Upside down

Fell in love with a damsel fair
Emerald eyes, night sky hair
One day she up and leaves me behind
Rather be with man who would treat her like shit
I don’t care, I will dwell upon it.
Stupid bitch like that not my kind
Hey!

And so…

Ten of Swords and the Tower too
Here you go it’s
Death and the Devil that I draw for you,
And for me…
the Magician, the Hanging Man and the Clown

And the Lovers
Drawn upside down, upside down
Upside down
Upside down

Down down, down upside down.
Upside down!
Upside down!

I don’t want love
I’d rather be insane
I fear no noose,
My heart fears no pain
I’m jaded and bitter as can be
And now as a result no-one hurts me

I laugh at love
I scoff at hate
My black heart of stone
Can never relate
I barely need friends
I don’t need a girl
And I don’t want to live in a world
turned upside down
Upside down (x5)

There’s very few people who understand
The point of the Gallows Humor band
Really there’s no mystery
So Necrodance to this song
Necrodance all night long
Everybody Necrodance with me

And so…


Ten of Swords and the Tower too
Here you go it’s
Death and the Devil that I draw for you,
And for me…
the Magician, the Hanging Man and the Clown

And the World
Drawn upside down

Ten of Swords and the Tower too
Oh now it’s
Death and the Devil that I draw for you,
And for me…
the Magician, the Hanging Man and the Clown

And the Sun and the Moon and the Stars
Drawn upside down, upside down
Upside down
Upside down

Down down, down upside down.
Upside down!
Upside down!

Upside down!
