[Intro]
Get down off my rooftop, get down off my
Get down off my rooftop, get down off my
Get down off my, get down off my
Get down off my rooftop, get down off my
[Verse 1]
Man, I ain't got no plans of staying grounded (nope)
f** the ground it's overrated pal I hate it down there (woah)
I'm off my face and I look strange without it
Cigarette bu*ts in my beer, but I could just drink around 'em
Up here we turn the music crazy loud and wake the township
Make the ba** lower than the value of every place around us
We used to have milk crates, now that I'm making thousands
I just wait for hard rubbish week, scout it and take the couches
So flip the cushions, I wish you wouldn't complain about it
The kitchens all full of dishes, look it's the way we found it
We changed houses after I made the album
I played it down but the mansion was the eighth house that I have been kicked out of
But look up on my roof and see me star gazin'
I'm Carl Sagan, I'm half baked, I'm stark naked
Is there acid in this gla** cause I can hardly taste
And half my face is melted off like a Salvador Dali painting
We're just the definition of a weird bunch
Just um... staring off into the distance
Mix d**, but mix 'em up so bad we don't know which ones
We just done, those hooligans getting loose on their roof again
[Hook]
I've been up on this rooftop
I've been up on this roof for so long
So long but I don't miss the ground
Don't tell me to come down, don't tell me to come down
I forgot what it looks like
No, I just wanna stay up, yeah, I just wanna stay up
I wonder when I will come down
Them hooligans gettin' loose up on that roof again
[Verse 2]
Yo, knock knock it's your neighbour, yeah the rowdy one
How's it goin'? Sorry that my dog ripped your flowers up
I know it's after twelve o'clock but they just cut my power off
So can we run this cord through your window for about a month?
(Come on man) Man, that was f**ing cold
I can't believe they called the cops, could've just said no
They musta noticed we cut off most of their garden hose
And I supposed they figured why their Internet was running slow (why?)
And Foxtel cut the cable off
Now I have to go and watch the same as what the neighbours watch
Looking through their window, eating chips on the nature strip
Make 'em trip cause I brought my own remote to change it with
(This show s**s!) And no one's payed it yet
Late at night looking like a bunch of satanists (Hell Boy)
Candles in the dark like we're doing seances
But we just raise em up pour the spirits into paper cups
[Hook]
I've been up on this rooftop
No, I just wanna stay up, yeah I just wanna stay up
So long, but I don't miss the ground
Don't tell me to come down, tell me to come down
I forgot what it looks like
Yeah I just wanna stay up, yeah I just wanna stay up
I wonder when I will come down
Them hooligans getting loose up on that roof again
[Outro]
Get down off my rooftop, get down off my
Get down off my rooftop, get down off my
Get down off my, get down off my
Get down off my rooftop, get down off my
Get down off my rooftop, get down off
I ain't comin'
