[Verse]
Though some things in life are hard to bear
Don't let it bring you down
Should the sand of time run out on you
Don't let it bring you down
[Chorus]
Don't go down - don't go underground
Things seem strange, but they change
How they change
Up and down your carousel will go
Don't let it bring you down
Don't go down - don't get out of town
Get to know how it goes, how it goes
When the price you have to pay is high
Don't let it bring you down
