Should a sudden loss of gravity propel me into space
or the neighbor's rabid pitbull knock me down and eat my
face

If the old lady next door should melt my eyeballs out
with mace
I won't get down

You can't get me down
Were I kidnapped in my underwear and duct-taped to a tree
or manhandled by an octopus and dragged under the sea

Should a gang of angry dwarves poke me with sticks and
laugh with glee
I won't get down

You can't get me down

Cause even when my my body falls behind my spirit's

gaining ground
these trials are just temporary they won't stick around.
the joy to come outweighs them all so I'm not gonna frown

My future's lookin' up so you can't get me down

You can't get me down

You Can't get me down
Should a tiny car burst into flames while filled with
circus clowns

It won't get me down
You can't get me down
Joy for tomorrow's what keeps me afloat so you can't get

me down.
