Lyrics
The Up
I can't stand to watch the six o'clock news
It's enough to give an average
Sensitive person the blues
Can't get it up
I don't know about commercial appeal
But what you put in your head
Just can't help affect how you feel
So let's keep it up
Prophets of doom try to capture you
They get around like the asian flu
But they can't get me
Because I go for the up
I'm on the upside
(I look for the up)
That down just ain't my style
I go for the up
I'm hooked on the up
I'm on the upswing
(I look for the up)
I got my sights set high
I go for the up
What's the point of standing out in the rain?
What's the sense of looking down?
It just gives your shoulders a pain
Can't get it up
It's a self-fulfilling prophecy
