I've Been Down

[Verse 1: Flea, (Perry Farrell)] I tumbled into space Tried to stop the fall My body ripped and tore I could have floated in space (Could have floated) I stumbled 'round my home I am on the outside My legs and arms are lead Feeling love from no one (Could have floated) [Chorus: Flea] My head weighs ninety pounds And I've been down My friends are aliens And I've been down [Verse 2: Flea, (Perry Farrell)] Well now, I've got no wife Cut a lizard's tail, it grows back to life I killed some sleepless nights My heart's torn to pieces (Could have floated) I am the funny guy Yeah, I've been down I am the big rock star Yeah, I've been down [Bridge: Flea] I'll never be the same, 'cause I've been inside out And I want to be an animal, and take care of my young [Chorus: Flea] My head weighs ninety pounds And I've been down My friends are alien And I've been down [Outro: Flea] I know what it's like 'Cause I've been down (Down...) Devil sneaks in and deals And I've been down (Down... far, far, far...!)
