Down Songtext

von Hot Chip

Down
To the ground, baby
You sure know how to break it on down
To the ground, baby
Down
To the ground, baby
You sure know how to break it on down
To the ground, baby
You sure know how to break it on down

You′ve got to worry until you get what you need
Girl, know how to break it on down
You've got to work it until it breaks, don′t you see?
Girl, know how to break it on down
You've got to work me until I'm starting to bleed
Girl, know how to break it on down

Reset, erase me ′til I lose sight of my dreams
Girl, know how to break it on down
You′ve got to need me 'cause I mean nothing to me
Girl, know how to break it on down
You′ve got to work me into the dust you can't see
Girl, know how to break it on down

I′m on the edge of just screaming
Screaming out your name
But then I know that I'm dreaming
Dreaming my life away
Well, someone just had to stop me
Take me out of the frame

(Girl, know how to break it on down)
(Girl, know how to break it on down)

All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy, oh, boy
(Girl, know how to break it on down)
But if this is working, it makes my play null and void
(Girl, know how to break it on down)
Until I met you, I never worked for one day

(Girl, know how to break it on down)
But now we′re working, this work is starting to pay
(Girl, know how to break it on down)
You've got to use me until I run out of juice
(Girl, know how to break it on down)
But don't replace me, maybe a screw has come loose

I′m on the edge of just screaming
Screaming out your name
But then I know that I′m dreaming
Dreaming my life away
Well, someone just had to stop me
Take me out of the frame

Break it down, don't bring me down, my baby
Break it down, right to the ground, my love
Break it down, don′t bring me down, my baby
Break it down, right to the ground, my love
(Girl, know how to break it on down)
