The Man Downstairs Songtext
von Lesser Sparrow

(Oooh)
(Oooh)
(Oooh)
(Oooh)

I will leave the leaves in piles out in the front yard
I make a fire out back for all the boys
I′ll tear your heart apart until you love me
As you try your best to talk through all the noise


'Cause the man downstairs is shouting from the table
She refused to take what they prescribed
I dream of dragons sunning in the courtyard
As we storm the castles with nothing to find
And we climb upstairs to our lover′s beds as they wait for us
They're half asleep in the neon heat of the room
And I may not understand what you're going through

It′s true
It′s true
(Oooh)
(Oooh)

She thinks it's sad when it′s all been said there's nothing
But yourself and the things that you believe
The man downstairs his head in his hands, he sighing
As we watch the children fall into the leaves
And we climb downstairs to our cheap sedans as they wait for us
Don′t go, don't leave, don′t cry, don't make a scene
And I'm standing there between child and man with only love for you


It′s true
It′s true
(Oooh)
(Oooh)
