Secretaries that never let you thru, ohh….Operatic cadences getting you through, shoo baa di do-baa, hanging upside down. My feet can’t touch the ground.

lyrics

Hang’N Upside Down©

Hang’n upside down
Hang’n from a rope
Think I’m gonna choke

Hang’n upside down
My feet can’t touch the ground
I’m hang’n upside down
My head’s lost in the crowd
My head’s lost in the crowd

They create walls and barriers
Of laws and carriers
With their stipulation and their rules
Secretaries never let you get through
Until you say!

I’m hang’n upside down
I’m slid’n up somehow
It seems remote
Is this a joke?
I’m hang’n upside down

Hang’n upside down
Cause I’m hang’n upside down

Hang’n upside down
Hang’n from a rope
Well, I’m think I’m gonna choke
Yeah, I’m hang’n upside down
Hang’n upside down

Well, I took a walk down Grand Avenue
And I saw seven different classes of man
They judge you on the spot
Before you even get to talk
Seems like you win a losing plan

I’m gonna blind the hang’n man
I’m gonna blind the hang’n man
I’m gonna blind the hang’n man

Limbo, and I’m waiting
The anxiety of anticipating
Miscalculating, living with what you do
Living with what you do

And I’m hang’n upside down

Hang’n upside down
Hang’n upside down
Hang’n upside down
And my head’s lost in this crowd
Hang’n upside down!
