lyrics

Can I get a little space from the dream
I been so close everything starts to seem
Like a shade or a breeze
Man, I been down on my knees
Won't you help me, please?

What price to pay for good peace of mind
If mice do play when cat's off to find
His soul or his groove
Maybe a cool way to move?
What's he got to prove?

When you're upside down
The top might seem like the bottom
But when you're on the bottom
It never really feels like the top
Stop
Bartender a round, then, for my strugglin' friends
May you find your means before you meet your ends

I freely admit that it's absurd on its face
Be it digits, bits of sand, or motion through space
That time is of the essence
For this master plan
While I tick away the seconds like a secondhand

When you're upside down
The top might seem like the bottom
But when you're on the bottom
It never really feels like the top
Stop
Bartender, a round, then, for my strugglin' friends
May you find your means before you meet your ends
