If anyone rises at 6.31
  and fakes all day that
  they're having their fun
  havinthey never did get it right
  since they got it so low
  
  To anyone drinking the morning away
  the afternoon will prove a mistake
  they never will get it right
  since we got it so low
  
  And we laugh and we drink
  and we teach ourselves not to think
  we never did get it right
  since we got it so low
  
  To all of the faces that
  freeze for you there
  in your memory when you try not to care
  they never disappear down the slow road
  
  For all of those people
  who bleed by the side
  and split from their tongues
  and sharpen their knives
  they never will get a life now
  they've got it so low
  
  And we laugh and we drink
  and we teach ourselves not to think
  we never did get it right
  since we got it so low
  
  Cornfields and pig-tails and
  fish in the stream
  the night when the boys stole
  a billion dollar dream
  from the high jinx school
  for girls down the road
  
  Stories and smoke trails
  and some may be true
  you're listening to me
  but im talking to you
  i hope you never fall from grace
  if you get it so low
  
  And we laugh and we drink
  and we teach ourselves not to think
  we never did get it right
  since we got it so low
  
  And we laugh and we drink
  and we find it hard not to think
  we never did get it right
  since we got it so low
  
  never did get it right
  since we got it so low
