The Handsome Family - One Way Up lyrics

How can you say there's only one way up? You know there's a million ways down Some folks are falling, others trying to get up I'm the one staggering around How can you lay there when you got to get up When other folks are going downtown? Some of them flying out or making a bus And you're just laying around How can you say it's just beginner's luck When a kid picks up on the sound? I'm flipping and a-floppping, don't know which way is up But you know what it means to be down How can you say there's only one way up When you know there's a million ways down? Some folks are falling, others trying to get up And I'm the one who is staggering around And I'm the one who is staggering around
