Words and music by rick nielsen

Downed, downed out of my head

'round, 'round out of my head



I'm gonna live on a mountain

Way down under in australia

It's either that or suicide

It's such a strange strain on you

Ooh, i got a mind

Over you it's not the first time

Ooh, i got a mind



Rainbow's crawling on a midday sun

But i've been lucky you're the only one

Sunday's calling, you'll be number one

It's such a strange strain on you

Ooh, you think of jesus christ

You walk on water but don't bet your life, oh no

All you walk is a fine line

It's such a strange strain on you



Downed, downed out of my head

'round, 'round out of my head



Too many people want to save the world

Another problem is it a boy or girl

Some say the weekend is the only world

It's such a strange strain on you

Ooh, i've got a mind

Over you it's not the first time

All you walk is a fine line

It's such a strange strain on you



Downed, downed out of my head

'round, 'round out of my head

Downed, downed out of my head

'round, 'round out of my head



(repeat to coda)
