I went downstairs to hear the sound Broke and lean, and singing "Song & I" The chorus in the underground I went downstairs, all dark and cold Where they could make the music mean I went downstairs where they are free The chorus sang so heavenly And there were others on the strings Working on their angel wings Where they call the hammer home One night only in the underground Before we all go to pieces I went downstairs to find relief The chorus had not left the stage The chorus in the underground I stayed down there 'til the final strain I stayed downstairs where we remain The chorus in the underground The chorus in the underground
