When Im Up I Cant Get Down by Oysterband Lyrics

I am the fountain of affection
The instrument of joy
To keep the good times rolling
I'm the boy, I'm the boy
I say the world will be our oyster
You can put your trust in me
We'll keep the good times rolling
Wait and see, wait and see
Wait and see

Exaltation
Sweet disintegration
A few discolourations
When it comes on strong
Up is what he chooses
The kisses and the bruises
There's nothing he refuses
When it comes along
It comes along
And I am lifted
I am lifted, I am lifted
CHORUS
When I'm up I can't get down
Can't get down, can't get level
When I'm up I can't get down
Get my feet back on the ground

When I'm up I can't get down
Can't get down, can't get level
When I'm up I can't get down
Get my feet back on the ground

Something to blind him
Something to wind him up
Won't take long to find him
And it comes along
Wise guys are grinning
Streetlights are spinning
The night is just beginning
And it comes on strong
Comes on strong
And I am lifted
I am lifted, I am lifted

CHORUS (repeating)

I am the fountain of affection
You can put your trust in me
We'll keep the good times rolling
Wait and see, wait and see
