I was trying to part
From a 4 o'clock wake up
To rise and shine
And back into the grind
Days they pass like eternity
But I know what to wait for
The Stones said "time is on my side"
Now, I know what it feels like
Down below, I put my head
On a bed of feathers lay, instead
Down below, down below
Down below, I'll get to hang
With Bowie, Reed and all the gang
Down below down below
All the angels they stare at me
They point at my halo
You had to see the young one, All in white, I turned into jello
Many bridges I have crossed
Some were meant to be broken
I climbed and peaked
I reached the highest tops
I really knew what my worth is
Down below I put my head
On a bed of feathers lay, instead
Down below, down below
Down below I'll get to hang
With Bowie, Reed and all the gang
Down below down below
