One Way Up by The Handsome Family Lyrics
[Verse 1]
How can you say there's only one way up?
You know there's a million ways down
Some folks are falling, others trying to get up
I'm the one who's staggering around
{Verse 2]
How can you lay there when you got to get up
When other folks are going downtown?
Some of them flying out or making a bus
And you're just laying around
[Verse 3]
How can you say it's just beginner's luck
When a kid picks up on the sound?
I'm flipping and a-flopping, don't know which way is up
But you know what it means to be down
[Verse 4]
How can you say there's only one way up
When you know there's a million ways down?
Some folks are falling, others trying to get up
And I'm the one who's staggering around
And I'm the one who's staggering around
How can you say there's only one way up?
You know there's a million ways down
Some folks are falling, others trying to get up
I'm the one who's staggering around
{Verse 2]
How can you lay there when you got to get up
When other folks are going downtown?
Some of them flying out or making a bus
And you're just laying around
[Verse 3]
How can you say it's just beginner's luck
When a kid picks up on the sound?
I'm flipping and a-flopping, don't know which way is up
But you know what it means to be down
[Verse 4]
How can you say there's only one way up
When you know there's a million ways down?
Some folks are falling, others trying to get up
And I'm the one who's staggering around
And I'm the one who's staggering around
