  • The answer's always no
    To questions of a private nature
    The lights are always low
    In settings of a conversation
    The ankle trips a wire
    While phasing into oscillation
    We'll take it while we go
    And leave behind our reservations
    It goes down

    It's never the same and the nights always glow
    There's nothing to see and nowhere to go
    It's easy to say you're happier when you're disturbed
    The grey lights in your head
    Getting down the germs
    I'm lazy and tame and the chimes always blow
    A glimmering sound on the breeze when you go
    It's never a shame and I've learned to live with the worms
    Underground
    Getting down the germs

    She's happy when it grows
    To heights above a normal nature
    The spirit always shows
    A life beyond a resignation
    The hammer breaks the toes
    A sliver of a conversation
    It's just above a hum
    We'll talk about it at the station
    It goes down

    It's never the same and the nights always glow
    There's nothing to see and nowhere to go
    It's easy to say you're happier when you're disturbed
    The green lights in your head
    Getting down the germs
    I'm lazy and tame and the chimes always blow
    A glimmering sound on the breeze when you go
    It's never a shame and I've learned to live with the worms
    Underground
    Getting down
    Getting down the germs
    Getting down the germs
    Getting down the germs
    Getting down the germs
    Getting down the germs
    Getting down the germs
    Getting down the germs
    Getting down the germs
    Getting down
    Getting down
    Getting down
    Getting down the germs

    It's never the same and the nights always glow
    There's nothing to see and nowhere to go
    It's easy to say you're happier when you're disturbed
    The grey lights in your head
    Getting down the germs
    I'm lazy and tame and the chimes always blow
    A glimmering sound on the breeze when you go
    It's never a shame cause they love to watch when you squirm
    All around
    Getting down
