How We Get Down - Horrorshow

It’s Friday night

And I’m sitting at home

And I just keep thinking how

Nobody’s ringing my phone

And it’s funny 'cause I thought I wanted to be left alone

But my mates are so entertaining, I’d hate to miss an episode

Who you writing off, who you taking on?

Who you letting go?

Hear the sound of my head going round and round

Till it’s too loud to drown it out

See I’m bound to build a mountain out

A molehill but it still gon' amount to nowt

Ain’t a shadow of a doubt about it

It’ll come round unannounced

Dunno how to deal when I’m

Feeling down and out, sing it loud now

And all my friends are fuckups

But they’re fun to have around

Still every now and then

I need some peace and quiet, turn the dial down

I guess I got that fear of missing out but

But that’s how we get down

And you might think you’ve heard me sing this before

But it always comes back for an encore

Don’t you say it’s played out, that’s uncalled for

Won’t ya just hum along to the sound of the chords, 'cause

'Cause that’s how we get down

It’s Friday night

And I’m out with my friends

Hoodie, t-shirt and shorts on

Never been one for trends

You can guess how this one ends

Well I guess it all depends

If we get our hot little hands on that which we all depend

It make me wonder if it’s real or just pretend

Here we go again

Gather round at the bar go round for round

Working all week we been counting down

Drinking like fish that’s about to drown

We ‘bout ‘bout it now till the power’s out

Or my legs give way like a roundabout

Yeah, it’ll come round unannounced

Dunno how to deal

When I’m feeling down and out

And all my friends are fuckups but they’re fun to have around

If you think they’re great when they’re up

You should see them when they’re coming down

Holding court for days, we each take turns to wear the crown

'Cause that’s how we get down

And you might think you’ve heard me sing this before

But it always comes back for an encore

Don’t you say it’s played out, that’s uncalled for

Won’t ya just hum along to the sound of the chords, 'cause

'Cause that’s how we get down

You might think you’ve heard this all before
