BRING IT DOWN LOW

In music there’s education, in music there’s communication

I stare in ignorance and dismay, what do they see that I can’t see?

What is it they hear that I can’t hear, they seem to be having so much fun

Sometimes I wish I did not think too much and maybe more like them

Bring it all down, down, down to the bottom

Bring it all down, down, down to the gutter

Down here where no talent is necessary

Down here where NOTHING is necessary

Way down here where they can all agree

In reading there’s emancipation, learning the new in appreciation

How come I ain’t learning nothing? I’ve seen this dude before

He said the same thing yesterday and of course the day before

Crime on the rise, otherwise all is fine and the weatherman’s funny

In admitting there’s hope, in denial there’s self-preservation

Hundreds of millions can’t be wrong, I must not be from here

They all can reach it if it’s way down low, but at least they can smile

Are they right or am I wrong, perhaps on this earth I simply don’t belong
