One Way Up
BRETT SPARKS
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
I'm the one who's staggering around
How can you lay there when you gotta get up
When other folks are going downtown?
Some of them flying, others making a buck
And you're just laying around
How can you say it's just beginner's luck
When a kid picks up on the sound?
I'm flipping and flopping, don't know which way is up
But you know what it means to be down
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
