What Goes Up

You can wave with a stick
And the violins are quick to follow

And you can wave with a stick
But the magic of the trick is hollow

It's not gold, it's no deal
If you wanna know what is real
Don't sink your teeth into it

Man, I've put the popcorn and sweets
Down on your empty seat
Cause you didn't make it

What goes up
Must come down and down it stays
You're telling me, you're telling me to call it a day

It's a gravitational threat
To resurrect from the dead, sweet Jesus

But I gotta give it to you
It takes originality and wit
If you're burying your shit when it freezes

It's not gold, it's no deal
If you wanna know what is real
Don't sink your teeth into it

You know what goes up
Must come down and down it stays
Must come down and down it stays
You're telling me, you're telling me how it is
You're telling me, you're telling me you call it a day
