Down Songtext
von St. Vincent

You hit me one time, imagine my surprise
You hit me two times, you got yourself a fight
I was a patsy, you were a creep from the cheap seats
Thinking that my little scratch was like your big victory
See, but I′ll take you down, uh-huh

Tell me who hurt you, no, wait, I don't care to
Hear an excuse why you think you can be cruel (cruel, cruel, cruel)
Mama always told me (my mama told me)
You got to turn the other cheek (my mama told me)
But even she would agree you′re an exception to that rule (rule, rule, rule)

I'll take you, yeah, I'll take you
I′ll take you (come on)
I′ll take you down
(I'll take you down, down, down, down)
I′ll take you down
(I'll take you down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down)


Go get your own shit, get off of my tit
Go face your demons, check into treatment
Go flee the country, go blame your daddy
Just get far away from me

′Cause I'll take you down
(I′ll take you down, down, down, down)
Ah, 'cause I'll take you down
(I′ll take you down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down)
(I′ll take you down)

Go tell your friends
Go tell your friends you're down
Run to your friends
If you got any, they left you down
Oh-oh-oh, go tell your friends
Go tell your friends you′re down
Oh-oh-oh, run to your friends (woo)
If you got any, they left you down
