It's better down there, beneath the street
No people I don't want to meet
That's what the sewer people told me
When I fell down the well
I never got used to the darkness
And it stunk like hell
A candle flickered in the distance
I felt my way along
Some dude was griping about a pickle
Told me what was wrong
And he said, "I've spent years hearing and helping and supporting my friеnd. And I know I shouldn't care so much - but I don't know how else to bе. It's better down here, beneath the street - no people I don't wanna meet"
A barrel blazing 'round the corner
Down here it's always cold
Each politely waited their turn
To spout what they were told
They talked around and round in circles
And agreed the world was lost "like what's the point"
The shrinking box of good behavior
The line's not to be crossed
And they said "You've lost your mind if you think this world is anything other than a playground for the rich and powerful"
It's better down there, beneath the street
No people I don't want to meet
The exit wasn't hard to find
Just climb a ladder up
But when I opened up the manhole
The sewer people pulled it shut, man
They said you don't wanna be like them
Just stay down here with us
You can lick your wounds to Kingdom Come
Free water is a plus
I said, "You won't keep me down here, but I'll be back here soon enough. Don't make me an enemy of your cause against light because you prefer dark"
I like it down there, beneath the street
You never know who you'll meet
No people I don't want to meet
That's what the sewer people told me
When I fell down the well
I never got used to the darkness
And it stunk like hell
A candle flickered in the distance
I felt my way along
